Watch with 8 lug holes?

Post by balzebub71 » 26 Oct 2013 13:56

I was swapping out the very thin and fragile original omega strap from my de Ville and realized that it had 2 lug holes on each lug, one high and one lower down, the original strap was mounted on the lower set of holes...

Anyone ever encounter this? Why the need for 2 sets on each lug?

Inner one for thin straps?
Outer one for fat straps?

Hmm I think you are both right, watch wears differently with the strap mounted on different set of lug holes.
