Omega battery strap
Where and how can I find a replacement battery strap for an old Omega Case # 1455 watch? It's a tiny piece that holds the battery in place. I took it to my local jewelers and they told me the part isn't available. They suggested getting the entire mechanism replaced, which I think is over kill.

My new 5270
Ok, after 6 weeks of shopping I pulled the trigger on the 5270. I know that the 5970 is iconic but this piece is far superior as a grand complication perpetual calendar chronograph. Thanks to hutchman for his perspective and to Alan for getting his first. Unfortunately no wrist shots until Fri or sat. I am traveling and no room in the bag. So FedEx for Friday delivery.And yest that is the only other pic I took. Going to see it again later tonight. Going to Patek Event and will take Pics.

Great photo of a Legend.
RIP R Lee Ermey

Value of Dial
I am considering an older DJ with the Tiffany dial. Does anyone know what kind of premium this would add to the watch vs the standard dial all other things being the same? I was browsing at some DDs with the stella dial and those are over the moon in price. Thanks!!
