I like that it’s easy to adjust while still on the wrist. Congrats

I never tried to adjust the clasp while on the wrist.


Gave it a go; guess I have too many thumbs. :raised:

I find the Omega clasp easier to use than Glidelock.

Nice upgrade. I did the same to my Seamaster 300. Makes the watch even more comfortable

I didn't really find the OEM clasp uncomfortable or lacking good fitment, but decided on the upgrade because the original clasp failed to stay closed because the diver extension was loose. I took the new clasp to a good jeweler for install because the boutique that supplied the parts wouldn't do it. The jeweler was also able to fix the old clasp to close crisp and firm, so I now have that as well.
No, it's not Tourettes.

Will this clasp fit the SMPc? I have a 2017 model and could use some extra breathing room when my wrist swells.

I'm pretty sure it should fit your bracelet without having to do the modifications I had to do on mine. It was designed to fit Omega 20mm bracelets with screw links. If you order it through a boutique or directly from Omega, it shouldn't cost much over $100.
