5168G Strap width?

Does anyone know if the new blue strap will fit on a 5164? Thanks!

Not sure about the 5168, but both the 5167 and 5164 are the same at 21mm. I'd think the advanced research was the same as well, as I think the case is identical to the 5164.

Even if it does fit, Patek will never allow such a swap.
The new 5168 is a 42 mm watch, in addition to lug width, there are 2 hidden protruding teeth inside the rubber strap, which may vary according to model.

The green, brown, and black all fit on the 5164A and 5164R.. I've done it. Those two teeth keep the strap in place but do not very. I think it'll fit...but not sure. Guess I'll just wait for my 5168... and see if I can swap it haha to the 5164a..
