So I stopped by the swatch group service centre this morning
And took these home with me today
They sell direct to the public and are located downtown T.O. - Bonus!
The small buckles are for my rally straps Mart made for me and were dirt cheap considering it's genuine omega ! $21 CAD each ! That's cheaper than a std screw in thumbnail buckle from
Panatime when factoring in exch rate and shipping!
Now the badass deployant buckle for the mesh wasn't so cheap but still far less than buying from Ofrei! Funny thing is I brought my mesh with me to make sure the deployant would fit and their watchmakers said no it wouldn't. I looked closely and said to myself why the F wouldn't it fit??? So I said to the lady who was helping me 'I'll gamble and take it'. She said no returns on parts and I was like 'no worries'. And as you can see it fits (zero issues). Looks absolutely badass!!
Gotta mount the mesh on the watch with this new buckle

You hit the jackpot!
No plans on putting my MK II on a strap, but that's a great combo, Danny.

What was nice is you can see the watchmakers lab where they do all the work from the reception area.
I can imagine all the goodies they have back there !
