Explorer 214270 on a jubilee?
Has anyone fitted a Jubilee bracelet to a 214270? I'm interested to try this combo but have no idea whether there are any jubilee bracelets, either Rolex or aftermarket, that will fit.

I've seen some pictures but I think they're mostly of 14270 Explorers on jubilees. I searched here and found a couple of old threads on this topic, but neither produced any results, so maybe I'm on a wild goose chase...

Yes. A 63200 and or a 63600 ‘Super’ Jubilee will fit a 214270.



I originally bought the 63600 Jubilee for a 16570 Polar, flipped that, bought a Grape OP 39 which the Jubillee fit surprisingly well. Not that well known but the OP 39 and Explorer share the exact same case, hence when I flipped the OP for a Explorer I 214270 MKII I knew it would crush and voila.

I thought 63200 and 63600 is the same thing? One long one short?

No gap where the curved end meet the watch?

63200 and 63600 are identical in fit, only differences (that I know) are more removable links on the 63600 (two more removable links, better suited for smaller wrists) and an improvement on the closing mechanism / coronet (has to do with metal construction, making it stronger as on the older 63200 some would break)

I tried the jubilee bracelet from my GMT on the sub 5513. Look good in my opinion. Should works on explorer also.

A jubilee on a Sub?
A jubilee on an Explorer?
These are action man watches!
I thought the jubilee was for ladies watches or for flashy ocassions?

I agree I don't like a Jubilee bracelet on a diver at all. At all.

I picked up A Seiko SKX007 a while back and it came with a stock Jubilee bracelet, which I took off immediately. I use it exclusively with NATO straps.

Divers on Jubilee bracelets rub me the wrong way

Hi, reviving an old thread but what is the reference for the normal jubilee that will fit the 214270? I tried searching the above but I am getting only the super jubilee (hidden clasp)?

If there isnt one, is there a reputable after market one I can get?
