Hi guys I was wondering if a Z serial coke bezel GMT was ever sold with a Jubilee band. I have never seen one and want to check with the pros. I saw one for sale and want to confirm it.

Thanks for your help

Htab · 8 June 2013, 02:47 PM

Anyone?

improviz · 8 June 2013, 02:54 PM

Z serial? Maybe, if so pretty rare...I did find this post which purports to show the 2006 (Z serial range) UK ordering guide which would seem to indicate they were available there, so it could just be that they were offered but rarely purchased...

Htab · 8 June 2013, 03:07 PM

That's what I thought. This one is a Z serial with jubilee

improviz · 8 June 2013, 03:19 PM

I did find this one, a D serial w/Jubilee, in an old FS ad, so it looks like it may indeed have been available in later models:

Also found old post from Tools, in which he stated that they were available up to model's being discontinued, so it's certainly possible....as to whether or not bracelet is OEM or was just added after the fact, tough to say unless it's got one of the newer warranty cards which lists bracelet number.

I agree

It's a great combo, shown here on a Super Jubilee.

The GMT II's were available with the Jubilee bracelet. Most came with Oysters, but you can check for sure on your warranty paper. The style number would have the bracelet type included as part of the style number which is the last four or five numbers.

Htab · 10 June 2013, 09:47 AM

Thanks guys. I appreciate the help.

Go to GMT history and you will learn which bracelets types came with the various GMT watches.

Nice looking but never seen first hand.

Watchdog · 10 June 2013, 01:34 PM

Hope so. Jubilee is the most attractive bracelet and what a versatile watch.

I wonder if it's possible to buy new GMT2 BLNR with this kind of bracelet

No but you could get a super jubilee for it. A pricey option but I think the GMT is a better looking watch on the Jubilee

Yes it was an option.contrary to popular belief I sent my GMT back to Rolex and asked to swap to a GMT and they did (in London)..,see pic'
(Obviously not a Coke but same era)

I received mine last Thursday and sent it back on the Friday

unfortunately the place I bought it from had mis sold it and not mentioned damage in a number of places.

I have decided on a brand new Explorer 1 instead and pick that up on Saturday morning. I loved the GMT but the strap felt awful and I suppose with regard to handing it down the Explorer is a more elegant and classic looking watch.

My first Nato strap arrived at home today a Hurley with pvd metal :-)

If I'm not mistaken the jubilee was first introduced on the GMT.
There for IMHO a jubilee is at home on any pre "c" model.

The jubilee was introduced on the DateJust and many years before the GMT was introduced
