Do the Omega 2500 and 8500 share the same hole size for hour & minute hands?

I can't seem to find info online regarding the hand hole size for Omega's 2500 and 8500 movements. I own a 38.5mm Skyfall Aqua Terra (8500 movement) and would like to put hour and minute hands from the 42mm Planet Ocean (2500 movement) on it. The reason is that the AT minute hand lacks lume down the length of the minute hand making it difficult to read the time in low light and also difficult to read in certain lighting conditions because the silver hands can blend in with the blue dial. The Planet Ocean minute hand has lume down the length of the minute hand which solves both legibility issues.

Does anyone have the answer?

And just for completeness, the hand hole size for the 8800 and 8900 movements would also be helpful.

Thanks.

My understanding is that the 2500 is an ETA 2892 except with a coaxial escapement, in which case it (probably?) has the same hand sizes: 1.50 × 0.90 × 0.25mm. No idea about the 8500, though.
