Yachtmasters used the same bracelets as the Sub Date.

Since they didn't come on a Jubilee, you need to live with the trade-offs. That era used the GMT style 62510H Jubilee with 50 stamped ends and 502 end links.

If you want to use the smaller case DJ Jubilees you need to compromise on the case fit and spring bar mismatch.

Would the super jubilee 63600 work?

Yes, a Super Jubilee 63200 / 63600 will work

My recollection is the 63600 works but needs different springbars. A search may find the answer.

Would it help to go to an ad that has an authorized certified watchmaker. I don't think they would be able to help you acquiring what you want but they might be able to help you know what to look for.

A very big thank you to all and especially Michale T for giving me the confidence to go ahead and do this. A few years of wanting and now this is a reality. What do you think?
