Can the new SS Daytona be put on Oysterflex like the old one could?
Thanks to this board, I ended up putting my 116500 on an Oysterflex a few years back and made sure to get the smarty end links to go with it (wouldn’t look right otherwise). Since then, I haven’t put it back on the steel bracelet.
Was wondering if you can put the SS 126500 on an Oysterflex as well and if so, how it looks. I don’t think I’ve seen one on here before. Below is not my pic but same exact set up I have.

Looks good. How do the end links work and stay put?

I don’t see any reason not. The lug width is still 20mm and it looks to me like the case shape still accomodates the Smarty endlinks.
I got to compare my 116500 side by side with a 126500 in Las Vegas a couple weeks ago. Despite the minor changes they are virtually identical in size. |

Why would you put a rubber bracelet on a daytona... seems silly. Paying premium for a rolex on a rubber strap is blasphemy no matter how comfortable it is.

I have a 116500LN and Smarty End Links enroute. What is a good rubber strap option? Anyone? I am assuming buying an OEM Rolex Oyster Flex strap is just not feasible.

Beautiful. White dial doesn’t look as good in rubber to me.
