rubberB for rolex also fits Omega ?

Redbirdsfan70

Which OEM Omega rubber strap did you have? I know of two made to fit the 2500 PO and I'm not sure I like either one but I'm open to your thoughts on them.

There is this one:



And this one:



I don't really think I like the look of either of them.

Like this RubberB on a Speedmaster Tintin?

I actually had both at on point lol

Both had a nice feel to it. I liked the top a little more but the bottom uses the deployment. I liked the look more of the top one plus bond wore it on the 2500 hehe

Now if you do like the look then I think a rubber b or Everest is the way to go. Some say they are expensive for not being oem but from what I heard the quality is right near the oem oysterflex and FYI that thing goes for close to 600 so 200 is a steal.

I think you posted it on IG a few days ago

How well does it fit and what model of Rubber B did you get?

WatchWalker

Correct, that was me.

The front side fits 95% I'd say. The back side a little less because the case shape of the Speedy is different from the Rolex. I originally bought this red RubberB strap to fit my platinum Yachtmaster that had a red second hand.

Here's a picture of the Speedy back side so you get a better feeling of how it looks.

Same can be said for most straps IMO. And most watches for that matter.

But I'll say that the quality and comfort of both Everest and RubberB is excellent. Durable and look great.

They can have my $200 😀

Which Model# Rubber B are these straps?

Omega straps are the same price if not more. The quality and feel of the RubberB is just as soft and comfortable as the Omega rubber strap with tang buckle.
Anyway here are some pics of a RubberB on a SMP 300. Sorry about the crappy photography.

The PO is on genuine Omega deployant.

As a matter of fact these straps fit perfectly on the 2254.50. Its like they are made for, curved neatly around the case and flush with the lugs. I had this combination on mine and you do need skinny spring bars as the holes don't quite line up. It is the same strap made for and used on my Explorer II 40mm or Sub 14060 no date. I have now a RubberB black rubber with tang (same case fit) on my 2254.50 but took the tang buckle of and fitted a 18mm black PVD coated Hedley Roma butterfly clasp. It all works and fit very well.
I was so impressed with the combo I fitted the RubberB black rubber with red VulChromatic on my SMP 300 quartz. The red on the strap complements the red on the second hand and red Seamaster logo on the dial very nicely. Also fitted the black Hedley Roma butterfly clasp on this one.
Sorry, no pics at the ready for now.
The Velcro strap I took of is now for sale here on the forum, size M fits a wrist up to 183mm.

Just recieved Rubber B strap for my seamaster smp quartz. How were you able to make it fit? It's 20mm by 18 tang buckle.

Correct, that was me.

The front side fits 95% I'd say. The back side a little less because the case shape of the Speedy is different from the Rolex. I originally bought this red RubberB strap to fit my platinum Yachtmaster that had a red second hand.

Do you know if the Rolex submariner Rubber-b's will fit the Speedy? Also one request - could you post a side profile of the front - just want to see how well it fits on the lugs?

I know this is an old thread but did you ever check to see if they fit with your 2500 PO and Speedy Pro? I may be pulling the trigger on one if they do. And I'd be curious what model you went with.
