007omegafan 0 Posted August 28, 2012 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?

amuthon 0 Posted August 28, 2012 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 Frank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kieron1968 0 Posted August 28, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T222 0 Posted August 28, 2012 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. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
007omegafan 0 Posted August 30, 2012 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

007omegafan 0 Posted August 30, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2point 21 Posted August 30, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattyhobbs 0 Posted November 7, 2013 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
