I am going to be taking possession of the above watch, 2020 year, 210.32.42.20.01.002 on a SS bracelet.
I want to change the bracelet to a rubber strap.
Thinking of getting an Omega “red” strap with deployment buckle to match the red Seamaster on the dial and the red seconds hand.

I have never worn a deployment buckle watch, only a tang/pin buckle in the past. 1. Can anyone comment on the comfort of this deployment buckle and 2. The lug width is 20mm, is the deployment buckle the same size or smaller? 3. Any other comments most welcome and appreciated by a newbie on this forum. Thank you.

Typically the deployant clasp is smaller than the lug width, I had one on my 2225.80 and that watch was 20mm at the lugs, 18mm at the deployment clasp, so 2mm of taper. It is mostly comfortable, Omega do a good job of it and its quite slim with a curve to fit your wrist.

It was a bit too curved for the underside of my wrist and the fit wasn't quite right for me, so maybe try one on in the boutique to get an idea of how it fits before ordering.

I have worn my 300M with the Omega two-piece rubber strap using the fold-over clasp. I have always found it to be very comfortable. It should be noted my wrist measures 7.25 inches. I agree with dsio, visit an Omega Boutique or Authorization Dealer try it on prior to making your purchase. Also, you should know the straps are sold in different lengths. Cheers!

Great advice, will go to Omega Boutique near me to try on first before ordering and note different size strap lengths

Went into the Omega Boutique near me. Tried other Seamasters with the deployment clasp, found it very comfortable. They can order it with deployment clasp. Now leaning towards the black rubber strap.
I saw it online, but not able to place in cart to buy.
