Does the 117STZ001154 clasp fits directly (with no special mods) on the VSF CRPO 45.5mm?
I don’t know if you are using it on the 42mm version or 45.5mm. And I really don’t know if the width of the bracelet is different on each version.

You bought it on a AD? I asked about the clasp on a AD and they told me it cost more than 200€, but he didn’t check it.
The store where you bought it sells online? :)

I bought it from an authorized Omega repair watchsmith here locally (Finland), he ordered it from Omega. I read that they have been around usd110 or something so thought I can live with the 130 euros cost. But more than 200 euros, that is a bad deal!

The micro adjustment clasps in the UK are £90 for the larger two, and £50 for the smaller one. From the Omega Boutique in Leeds.

Odd. Can you post a pic of both clasps, from the inside?

I will check it again on the Omega AD, but now I will ask for the price with the reference number.

They do the micro adjustment clasp in three sizes.

117STZ004666 - 3 positions - smaller than original clasp
117STZ001154 - 6 positions - same size as original clasp
117STZ001159 - 6 positions with diver extension - larger than original clasp

Any idea of the code for the 42mm version? I asked in the Omega boutique but they weren’t sure and need to see my watch unless I have the part number

It does not exist. Re 18mm po bracelet - you need to go for a seedy clasp with micro-adj. It is 20mm wide but it takes 18mm bracelet.

Yeah I have seen people say there is a micro clasp that fits, apparently you need to buy an extra link, just can’t find any parts numbers

Depends which bracelet you have. The adjustable clasps are only available in a 20mm width fitting so you’ll need to swap the clasp links on your bracelet as the 42mm bracelet tapers to 18mm.

What’s the code on your current clasp, and I’ll tell you which links you need.

There’s different clasp links for different bracelets. Hence why I asked which he has.

1610-930 / 1612-932 / 1580-952 / 1998-849 bracelets need 2x 118st1589 clasp links, 1503-825 / 1504-826 bracelets need 2x 118st1515, 1579-951 / 1581-953 need 2x 118st1590.

He might also need 4x 3307 screws + 2x 0166 pins, again depending on what bracelet they’re being fitted to.

Yes, 42 CrPO bracelet is 1589/858;) well done with this list anyway!
Can you check the part no. for speedy Mark II clasp? Iirc, it is adjustable and is a direct swap to 18mm bracelets.

I don’t have the watch at hand, but it’s the 42mm CRPO in this thread

I received my CRPO 45.5mm today.
This watch is stunning. I don’t have words to describe how it feels and the build quality.

Now it’s time to resize the bracelet and search for a adjusts clasp :)

Yep, 118ST1589 is the right clasp link for that strap :) I'll try and find a code for the speedy mk2 clasp.
