Beautiful.
What model is it for ? I would like to get one for my 2003 GMT but Rolex have refused to supply it as it was not "native" to that model. How did you convince Rolex?

The first time I called them they could smell what I was up to so they told me to bugger off and stop tampering with my watch. The second time I called I said it was a present for my Dad as he has a DJ - they dutifully obliged. However, they refused to sell me 1.8mm thick springbars (for lug hole case) so I had to order them separately. Orignal ones cost a small fortune.. HUGE mark-up!! Let me know if you need any help...

Might I ask you how much it cost Anders ? I understand it ain't cheap - somewhere in the £900.00 region ?

Congrats, Anders...........I can count 24 links so they're all there, buddy!!
A useful tip: If you need to resize for any reason, take off ONE link from the '12' side - NOT the '6' side............to get a perfect centralization of the crown on the underside of your wrist. JJ

As promised here are those high res shots of the 63200 (Rolex supplied the WRONG 2.0mm springbars so I can't fit it until Friday - the waiting continues!)
Even though I can't fit it I must admit it feels exceptionally sturdy and super smooth on the skin. No risk of getting any wrist hair caught whatsoever It will be on my wrist by Friday midday GMT

Wow, I must say that looks amazing. Its a shame that is so pricey, I can't wait to see the pics on Friday!!
What's the difference between the regular and "Super" jubilee? Is it that the Super only has the crown showing on the outside of the clasp? Thanks.

That's a cool little toolkit you have there Can you show a pic of the finished product, I would love to see how the endlinks mate up with the 40mm EXII case
