Thanks for posting up such detailed pictures.
The simplicity and compactness appeals to me which also draws me to a C65 or C7 IRR.
I think the difference between the CW Bader and Omega and Oris is that there is only one hinge buried under your wrist and outer strap

You lost me there.... What is the difference in the hinges between the three makers?

I thought all three just have one hinge. The Bader clasp locks onto the button that pops through the strap hole while the others have locking mechanisms at the sides of the clasp.

Nice review.

The clasp certainly seems to do the business.

If you look at this pic of the Oris you can see 2 hinges. One where the two long sections connect ( same as the Bader) and a second where the outer clip connects to one of the longer sections. ( left in this picture)

The Bader has just one hinge. At the left just near the thumb in this pic

It does appear that the Oris has an additional hinge - although the Omega does not. Not sure if it would be noticeable during wearing though...

I'm holding off on ordering another leather strap for my C60 in hopes for a bader clasp option!

Having a smallish wrist, I worry about single-fold clasps matching the curvature of my wrist. Thanks or the information!

The Bader-style is much more elegant than other butterfly clasps imho. Does anyone know if they can be bought seperately anywhere? Thanks in anticipation.
