Hmm...... Seems Rolex still thinks that the watch and accessories doesn't really belong to you.

It really speaks to how strong Rolex's market position is, where they can refuse something so innocuous. Why not accommodate customers wanting to give them more money to buy a bracelet that's already offered with that watch anyway?

Omega deserves more credit in this respect- customization with leather and NATO straps is encouraged, and if I wanted to update the bracelet on my 3570.50 moonwatch to the one from the new model, they're happy to take my money and let me do it.

The jubilee bracelet is not on exchange, and can be ordered for those with the oyster version.

Just so you know
Hi Baz

This new 79200 oyster for the 126710 , how does it differ from the 78200 fitted to the 116710 ,I realise people have fitted them on here implying they are identical bar the 87200/97200 code .

DO you know the difference ?
