Reference Breakdown

• ST: Denotes stainless steel construction, using high-grade 316L steel for corrosion resistance, a lasting finish, and everyday durability.

• 6203: The design code for this bracelet. It features a flat, wide multi-link configuration, slightly more squared than earlier references like 6201 and 6202. The wider surface area creates a smooth, uniform appearance across the wrist while retaining good flexibility.

• 856: The solid end link reference, custom-fitted for OMEGA De Ville watches with 19mm lug width. These end links are precisely machined to integrate seamlessly with the watch case, ensuring a tight and visually continuous fit.

Key Features

• Material: Solid stainless steel, satin-brushed with subtle polished accents for contrast and refined appeal

• Link Design: Flat, broad links in a uniform layout, tapering slightly for ergonomic balance and comfort

• End Links: Solid 856 end links designed to fit snugly into De Ville 19mm lug openings, with smooth, case-hugging geometry

• Clasp: Vintage-style fold-over clasp with engraved OMEGA logo, secure and easy to use while maintaining a streamlined look

• Wearing Feel: Medium-weight, stable, and smooth against the wrist—ideal for extended daily use

The ST 6203 / 856 offers a perfect middle ground between refined dress styling and the slightly more assertive proportions found in modern bracelets.
