President bracelet on GMT?!?!
Hello all.
I am new to this forum, but not new to Rolex's. I am looking at getting a Pepsi GMT as a present to my self, but already have 3 oyster bracelet watches and have never truly liked the Jubilee look. Has anyone ever tried putting a president bracelet on a GMT or sub? I want a change in style and am curious to see pictures if it has been done before. Thank you |

Rolex used to offer the President bracelet on gold GMT as an option. I have seen one and it looked quite nice!

Thanks HL65
Any thoughts on what it would look like on white gold? Also I have been out of the loop for a while. Does Rolex even offer a white gold president to fit the lugs or would I have to go after market? |

Thanks Ken, would be so interesting to see Presidents on other models. Hope someone tries to mix match.

I guess in a way some might see it as unconventional. But ultimately if you are spending thousands and thousands of dollars on something you want it to fit your style and personality. And for some that means on a president bracelet regardless of the watch

Bumping an old thread, because this is really interesting (to me at least).
Does anyone know if the current president bracelet would fit a new (gold) GMT Master II? |

Perhaps some Presidents are not "presidential" ?

Look, as Rolex at one time allowed for a president bracelet on the gold GMT, it would seem to be to be a bit pearl clutching to call putting the same (updated) bracelet on the same (updated) watch "blasphemous."
I just want to know if it's possible. |

I don't think the end links would fit the case correctly, but may be wrong. The 5 digit GMT Master on YG President bracelet is pretty nice looking imo.
