As for as I know, all rubber b straps are specifically made for a certain model. So i do not believe you can interchange it with a Daytona, especially since the case is different from a sub. At most it might fit but could be unsecured and you could risk damaging or losing your watch. Not worth it when buying another one is $250.

Sub and Daytona cases are very different. Even on some similar cases, ie 6 digit Sub and GMT, the spring bar holes and diameter may not be in the same place.

Exactly. The fit is so custom they offer a half dozen in the Daytona line alone.

Ceramic Daytona is the M103CD. Submariner on Glidelock is totally different. The older Sub pre Glidelock is an M103. The inside of the straps should have the markings. You can use an M103 but you’ll need to use a standard 1.8mm Springbar and possible need to curve it slightly to allow for the very small difference in fit. Rolex Springbar is 2mm diameter and has no wiggle room at all.

ADs are able to order oyster flex bands if you are willing to do some work (convincing).
