GMT Jubilee with Fliplock clasp?
The later GMTs with the SEL oyster bracelet also have a very cool fliplock clasp where the outside is half as big as a sub fliplock. I am wondering if anyone knows if it can be fitted to a GMT jubilee bracelet. I am guessing that I will need to press out a hinge pin to swap out the fixed bracelet link. Anyone done this?
By the way, I finally got a Serti GMT that's a keeper! If you've followed my posts on this topic, you will know that I bought one on ebay that had a stretched bracelet and returned it. Bought another from a grey that came with a scratched dial (it was a factory dial but not original to the watch) and returned it, and FINALLY bought one that's a keeper. Here it is with my serti Sub.

You might be able to fit the flip loc but is it really necessary? Never had a jubilee fail on me yet.
Congrats on the serti GMT. dP

IMHO, a Fliplock on a Jubilee bracelet would look like
Don't fix it, if it aint broken!!

The Serti GMT is a thing of beauty! I don't think I ever saw one before, even in pictures.
