126710 BLRO and 97200 bracelet???
Afternoon everyone, I apologize in advance as I know this has been discussed before but having dug through historical threads I didn't seem to find a concrete answer.....I was wanting to know if anyone has successfully switched out the jubilee bracelet on the Pepsi 126710 BLRO for the SubC 97200 bracelet? If so, which pins were needed, is it a solid seemless fit, and if you happen to have any photos of the successful swap I would love to see them.
Thank you! |

I would love a straight answer to this also. Recently acquired a brand new oyster bracelet.

Don't see why not.
Folks have put on a 97200 on other GMT's without issue. |

Rolled moved the lug holes on the case for the new sport jubilee bracelet. I too would like a definitive answer because I own the new BLNR and would like the scoring to change bracelets from time to time (dress to sport). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Actually, there's been a couple of guys on TRF that have done exactly this. Both with the BRLO, and I believe the older and newer BLNR's as the glidelock clasp was what everyone was after besides the BCL's.
If memory serve's me correctly, the requirement is that you have to use the spring bars from the GMT with the Sub bracelet. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to post pics of exactly this. It's been posted many times (including once or twice in the last few weeks). FYI. |

Ooookay I am liking that... I wonder if the overhang on the lugs would dig into the wrist at all?

I even like it better than the PCL version! To have both the Jubilee and Oyster bracelet and switching them from time to time seems like a lovely idea!

So much better than jubilee.
