Best Strap To Use With 42 Omega Planet Ocean

Recommended Posts

007omegafan

I just placed my order for my 42 Omega Planet Ocean (black dial white 3/6/9 markers)... was curious what you guys consider to be the best strap for the watch. I've worn bracelets in the past and have had more luck with some than others. If the bracelet included on Mary/Rochets PO isn't all that comfortable, I figured I'd swap it out... perhaps something like this : http://www.ebay.com/itm/OMEGA-Planet-Ocean-22mm-Black-Vulcanised-Rubber-Strap-/160845774464?pt=UK_Jewellery_Watches_WatchAccessories_SpareParts_SM&hash=item257327be80

 

Any thoughts?

Those ebay rubbers are just a pita to mount! (ooops just realized, to linked to the real deal :P )

Got a rep one myself, never managed to use it.

If you're located in the EU drop me a pm, would give it away at a discount....

 

cheers

My PO from Mary which i got last week has a top notch metal bracelet, very good quality. I also places an order for a rubber omega strap. I'll let you know what it's like when it arrives.

Please note that the strap you link to is for the "big" PO! (22mm strap)

The PO you get (the 42mm) only takes a 20mm strap.

 

Cheers. :-)

So I spoke with Mary/Rochest who are going to send along the rubber PO strap as well .. looks like this

I asked them if they had any access to a strap like this and they said no.. would my only option be to buy an authentic strap in this style? Or do they not come in this style for the PO at all?

Hi if you do manage to fine a strap like the one above could you let me know? Pretty please. Cheers.

It APPEARS (not sure) that the main difference is just the deployant clasp.. ... could I just replace the small buckle on the Rubber band mary is sending with something like this?

I just think it looks nicer.

I had a rep leather strap. Awful.

 

I wear mine on the bracelet, V5/UPO, which is excellent. The 21j bracelet is good but not as real feeling as this one.

 

For my Speedmaster I'm looking at a Hirsh strap that has curved ends - ebay is a good bet around £40.

Im after that rubber strap with stitching, any luck finding it?

 

They must be able to get it from somewhere because you can buy 42mm PO's on rubber

If it fits the 45mm PO and no-one else wants it I might be interested.
