Upgrade Oyster bracelet Clasp

Anyone have advice on upgrading a 2005 era Datejust 16200 stamped clasp to the newer style ?
Thanks

Hi

The clasp will just screw on to the old bracelet. I did it with my explorer 214270 and the old oyster of my Tudor submariner. The OP milled clasp would probably suit yours best. Or the flip lock from the explorer with an easy link. Trouble will be finding one for sale at a non crazy price I know a guy selling a original glidelock but it’s about $1300

Ask an aftermarket bracelet maker. Authentic clasps are crazy expensive. I just got an aftermarket glide lock to use with my everest strap bc Rolex won't sell one to me.

OP milked clasp would be what I'm looking for. Glidelock is too large for the 36mm DJ
