Can Rolex 16018 18K yellow gold case be paired w/ modern Jubilee Crownclasp bracelet?

Can Rolex Datejust model 16018 18K yellow gold case (circa 1977) be paired with a modern Jubilee Crownclasp bracelet? If not, are new 18K yellow gold bracelets available for the Datejust 16018?

You'll come out ahead if you just find a DJ with the bracelet you want. You will sped more for a new bracelet than you will for the watch head itself. Or nearly anyway.

i think it can because it originally had solid endlinks and no case lug holes. but very costly

I'm pretty sure that any hollow-end-link bracelet can be used.. It is unlikely that an SEL can be fitted as the case probably does not have the machined ledge on the backside between the lugs to locate an SEL bracelet..

A new gold jubilee is around $14,000.00.
