Hi guys,

Have had the Super Jubilee bracelet on my Exp-II since the last couple of weeks or so and the sheer comfort and feeling of "nothingness" on my wrist is something to be experienced to be believed.

It's just too damned comfy, so I wonder if I'd ever go back to the original Oysterlock bracelet that came with the watch?

I know you worked hard to get that JJ, congrats. It looks really good.

Jocke · 6 January 2010, 07:42 AM

Every watch on a ferret will be comfortable.

I'm sure with that shruberry you will not even feel the watch on a NATO a frozen day.

Funny you should ask, JJ. You know there's no bigger jubilee fan than me........and you, of course.

But it's been so long since my GMT was sporting the original oyster that when I recently installed it I was surprised how much I liked it. The jubilee looks great on anything but the classic oyster is.......well, classic.

I believe the Super has solid center links and is 20mm (designed for the new DJ II?)

I'm not 100% sure, myself though.

Hidden clasp, solid end links, and solid center links.

More than DOUBLE the price for starters!!

ALL SOLID links, concealed clasp and SELs.

Yes, but with the Super Jubilee you would need to use spring-bars of 1.8 mm thickness only.

The thicker 2 mm spring-bars will NOT fit through the SELs of the Super Jubilee bracelet.

It looks beautiful, Im looking to purchase one (Super Jubilee) for my GMT. Can you point me in the right direction?

I see you are in New York, so why not try with ROLEX HQ in N.Y. first and see what they have to say.

MSRP on the SS Super Jubilee is US$1,350.00.

Naples09 · 6 January 2010, 08:03 AM

Great pick JJ...it looks great on that watch.

Any idea what a TT would run? And any info on "who" I might PM to buy one from!

Thanks,

Jim

The SS is US$1350, but I've heard the TT Super Jubilee 63203 would be around US$3800.

I got mine from an AD in the USA (sorry, cannot reveal his name under oath), but I see no harm in asking your AD first. You've got nothing to lose.

Thanks, I hope they will sell it to me. That EXPII is gorgeous, wear it in good health.

Thanks, buddy......you will need a lot of 2 things - PATIENCE and PERSEVERENCE - to get this bracelet.

If I could do it from thousands of miles away in New Zealand, no reason why you can't accomplish the same when you are right in the good old US of A!!

Good luck - JJ

Nice pics JJ, I'm glad the super Jubilee is working out after your long search to find one

Happy new year mate

Can you put a Jubilee or Super Jubilee bracelet on any Rolex? For a long time I thought that the GMT (old style) was the only chameleon in the lineup.

I've tried it on my YM - sorry, does NOT fit because the YM lugs are curved inwards and the spring-bar refuses to meet up with the holes on the inside of the lugs.

Yes looks great... enjoy!
