Wow, I received this watch today as a gift (purchased abroad) and immediately hated the way the strap felt. While my wife took a nap to deal with jet lag, I googled "omega swatch band uncomfortable", found this video, changed the orientation as instructed, and voila, magic. Should have come like this. Bizarre that it didn't. Thanks for figuring it out. I was prepared to buy a different strap but wasn't thrilled about losing the swatch and omega branding - and now I don't have to. Bravo!

to be fair its the first thing i did when i got my watches however at the end of the day the strap still sucks especially when you remember how much you have to spend to get the thing. most of them look far better on a good matching nato but those rubber ones are absolutely the best straps ive ever worn. the 50$ FKM and other high end rubbers are great but the silicone 10-15$ straps work just as well.

Daniel Craig actually looks like he is adjusting his shirt cuff. If you wear dress shirts especially with suits you will find yourself doing this from time to time. I do not live near a store and chose not to go through third party sellers. But i did just order one now that some are available on the swatch site. I do plan on switching the band so this wont be an issue for me. But i think i will wear it with the retail strap both ways just to see.

Hi, the glitch is good but... Strap at original omega is different, not in the way it works, but the difference lays in quality. Just like difference between swatch/omega watch and original omega. What strikes me mostly is your reference to Daniel Craig being part of James Bond campaign. He's not adjusting a strap, he's showing a watch that is a part of the movie. So be fair, even if it's a joke or your plan to drag more people on your channel, please remember that most of society believes in things that they see or read on the Internet. Good night and good luck.
