I have a full size blue Bond Seamaster (20mm lugs) and recently purchased the black rubber strap with tang buckle (98000085). I am likely to be in the market for a 42 mm PO in the next month or two and was wondering if the black rubber strap I already own will work with the 42 mm PO since I know Omega sells a different strap for the PO (98000144). I know the lug size is the same and the two straps look similar as far as I can tell but for the Planet Ocean language on the underside, but was not sure if they are really interchangeable on the two watch cases. I love the strap, and would love it even more if I could use it on both watches! Thanks for any insight!

The PO rubber strap has a slightly different curved end and has a different spring bar position. You might be able to use it w/curved spring bars, but not 100% secure.
