SkyD on Jubilee

After seeing a Hulk on Jubilee pic (looked great) thread few days ago I was wondering if anyone has tried or have Pic of the SkyD on a jubilee bracelet...
I realize it might cut a similar profile as DJ on jubilee but it would be nice to see how one actually looks as SkyD is a bit larger in profile and heft then DJ.

.

You just have to find (or build yourself) a 22mm Jubilee.

I don't think the case/dial of the SkyD would go with the Jubilee. Too busy.

If it were available, I'd get it. I prefer the look and the comfort of the SJ. There are aftermarket 22mm Jubliee bracelets but the color and quality don't match at all. That said, If someone made up an end link for it, I expect that a 20mm or 21mm Rolex jubilee could be made to work.

There is a 22mm Jubilee for Seiko SKX007; I wonder how it would fit. There are also some straight end bracketed ones.

While the bracelet might fit, I'd imagine the quality would be nowhere close to what you'd want on a Skydweller.

Looks great! Would buy a Jubilee bracelet for the SkyD Blue to change them out as mood hits me.

While I'm not normally a fan of the Jubilee, the mock up looks pretty sharp with the transition from the bracelet to the fluted bezel.

Aftermarket SKX jubilee bracelet.

The factory jubilee bracelet for the SKX is NOT good, but quality ones can be had for under $100 from Strapcode. I bought one for my SKX and love it, especially at the price it is. No idea if it would fit, but if you’re looking to try, I would recommend checking them out. Can always return it if you don’t like it.

I have serious doubts about the diameter of the watches being the same. Different diameters will make a big difference in the end links. Highly unlikely that other than a straight end link that a bracelet for another watch would work.
