14060 on Jubliee?

Hi All,

I've seen some pictures around of folks that have put a jubilee on a sub date. Anyone know if there is a jubilee that will fit a 14060? If so, which one and does anyone have pictures they can share?

Not an expert by any means, but I think you have to start with the proper end links.

Definitely a different look. I'm personally fond of it, but then few things look bad on a no-date!

Cheers,

Ben

You know, early GMT's were available with the "Sub" bracelet. Any bracelet that was made for those GMT's will fit a Sub, including the Jubilee 62510H/502

For a 14060 you'll need a 62510 w/ 502B or 502T endlinks. Sadly, they're not easy to find.
You might be able to use a Super Jubilee 63200 or 63600, but I'm not sure those will accommodate the 2mm springbars.

There's no doubt Oyster is the way to go for Subs, but it's nice to change it up from time to time.

Thanks Tim.
Subs on Jubilee tend to get more negative comments than positive, but it's really a pretty sweet combo in my opinion. I once bought a Jubilee bracelet from an older guy who took it off his 5513. He said when he bought the 5513 new in the late 70's/early 80's, he was given the choice of Oyster or Jubilee at the dealer. So, there's also a bit of a retro vibe to it.

Cheers,
-GW

Wow, can't imagine having that option, I'd have a tough time deciding on that one.

Wow, I would have lost that bet. I really like that combo.

Looking at this thread, I just pulled out a 1990s NOS Jubilee that I've been saving to see how it would look on my 5513. Didn't like it, though I wanted to.
