The Omega Vintage 198-0045 needs 18 mm between the lugs. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.
Can the strap on the Omega Vintage 198-0045 be changed?
Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.
Can I put a leather strap on the Omega Vintage 198-0045?
Yes, in 18 mm leather. On a case a calf strap works every day; if you want something more, alligator.
