Jubilee Band Question for 16710
Gents,
I have a "D" Serial GMT II with Black bezel. Although the original oyster bracelet is great, I've seen a few with the jubilee band. Can someone please educate me on the required jubilee band (model, etc). Also, what is the deal with the "end" pieces? Thank you ! |

If you get the Super Jubilee bracelet, then all you need are 1.8mm springbars which normally go with the DJ. The GMT normally has 2.0mm springbars.

Edward,
Not sure were to get them but you'll want 502T end pieces for the classic jubilee with a case without lug holes.

1.8mm pins are too small and will rattle around in the holes in the case, eventually making the lug holes odd shaped.

A few months ago I took the plunge and bought a Super Jubilee bracelet for my GMT it looks and feels awesome. PM for details if interested.

A jubilee changed the wrist time 100% on my 16710, my GMT has a 62510H with 555B end links, total cost used $750, after much shopping and several offers...
BTW, super jubilee's are much harder and more expensive than a regular jubilee... GMTside.JPG GMTside2.JPG |
