Ladies Jubilee Bracelet

What year did Rolex change the clasp from the old style buckle to the new hidden clasp on the jubillee bracelets? 2001 or 2002 maybe?

If I'm not mistaken it was 2005 when the 179 series was introduced. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The 19018/9N links (post 1985) don't have chamfers. Instead they have an oval profile and vertical brushing.



I think it was from a parts catalog because you'd need to specify the right code when ordering replacements.

If anyone has this diagram and could upload here it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I like this unusual bracelet design

This is really useful thread - can someone point me to a resource about this bracelet on a later 1960s DD - similar to ref 8623 but this looks smoother but from the earlier picture on the brochure the ref 8623 is not this smooth.

Any advice on purchasing this type of bracelet - prone to stretching?

Thanks v much!
