Omega

Hello

I just acquired the Omega in the photes attached.  It looks different from any I have ever seen.  Can any of you confirm its authenticity or not?

If real, where can I get the correct band at?

Thanks, the bracelet on this watch now is an aftermarket band.  it looks like a wire mesh stainless steel.  The brand on the clasp is "AirFlex" stainless steel.

Hope that helps.
