GMT, JUBILEE, DJ, END LINKS question...

hi,

a few months ago i bought a gmt (f serial-2004) on oyster braclet.

since then i was looking for a jubilee (and diffrent insertd) bracelet.

a few days ago my dealer disassembly a jubilee bracelet from an F serial DJ, just for me(600$).

the end links wernt good for my case so he found an old end links mark 50(old one).

now im a bout to get in a few weeks a 502T end links.

my qouestion:
i know (from reading here) that the GMT jubilee got the last link before the endlinks mark with 50, what can i do to maximize the fit under this situation?

sorry for the long post....

thanks ahead

Ami

You can either use the smaller diameter spring bars (1.8mm) that fit the DJ bracelet (and get some rattle) or you can force fit the correct (for a GMT2) 2.0mm spring bars into the DJ bracelet - the downside of doing so would be that you can never remove the spring bars from the bracelet. The optimal course of action would be to use the correct GMT2 type Jubilee bracelet.

Actually I reread what you posted - it seems like you might have the correct GMT2 type Jubilee bracelet and matching 502T endlinks.
