Jubilee Bracelet for GMT Master II 116710

Will a 692200 Jubilee bracelet fit a GMT Master II 116710? ( This is the bracelet for a GMT Master II 126710 watch)

Also , will a 63600 Jubilee Bracelet fit a GMT Master II 116710?


I am trying to put a Jubilee on my 116710 .


Thanks .

Thanks for there reply . After reading these threads, I am still not sure which bracelet reference will fit perfectly on the 116710. I am reading correctly that the Jubilee bracelet on the Batman and Pepsi with the easy link feature will not fit correctly on the 116710 , but that the Jubilee bracelet 69200 without an easy link will ?

For the 69200 bracelet to fit onto the 116710 case you need to find the proper spring bars. The original ones that come with the 116710 will not fit into the 69200 bracelet as they are too wide, and the 126710 spring bars won't seat properly into the 116710 case lugs.

Thanks for your reply . Just curious, as I understand since the cases on the 116710 and the 126710 BLRO are the same , is the reason the spring bars on from the 116710 are too wide because of the Oyster bracelet that comes with the 11610?

Separately, do you know if a Super Jubilee 63600 bracelet ( no easy link ) will fit the 116710 and if so will the spring bars of the the 1116710 fit this bracelet ?

My understanding is the 116710 and 126710 cases are not the same.

Rolex, in their infinite wisdom, has used a couple of different size holes (spring bar pivot size) in the lugs, likely with the idea that you won't switch bracelets.

To make things even more frustrating, some of the newer bracelets use a new 1.5mm spring bar, while the older bars were 2.0mm or 1.8mm.

When you start mixing, you also need to find the spring bars that will both fit the bracelet, and seat properly into the lugs. Using too small bars to force a fit will only end up damaging the hole they rattle around in.

Thanks .

It didn’t come with it it shouldn’t be on it in my opinion. Not that you were asking.

Rolex or not mix and matching is a FrankenWatch in my world.

116710BLNR VS. 126710 BLNR – CASE

Although the case of the newer GMT-Master II ref. 126710 may seem identical to the previous generation, Rolex actually slightly re-shaped the lugs for a slightly more refined appearance. Still measuring 40mm in diameter, the changes to the case are minimal and would likely go unnoticed by all but the most observant – especially without having a GMT-Master II ref. 116710 on hand for a side-by-side comparison.

While slightly different than the case found on the ref. 116710BLNR, the re-designed case of its successor is still classifiable as a “super case” by all definitions of that term; the revamped case of the newer GMT-Master II remains noticeably thicker than the cases used on older GMT-Master references with aluminum bezels.

The super jubilee will fit the 116710 BLNR. Same spring bars. I’ve done it. Fits fine…

Yeah I think the super jubilee in the date just 116234 models. It should fit on subs too

Jubilee Bracelet for GMT Master II 116710

Sorry to revive an old threat, but i have my 116710 BLNR on a SuperJubilee (63600). It fits perfectly with the same spring bars that come with the bracelet or the ones that come with the watch / oyster bracelet.

I just purchased the 69200 jubilee from a 126710 ref. and can confirm that it does not fit on my 116710 case. The spring bar of my 116710 does not fit in the 69200 bracelet and the pins that come with the 69200 bracelet do not fit in the lug holes of the 116710 case.

I also noticed that the 69200 tapers more aggressively than than 63600 bracelet. So even trying to remove the clasp from the 69200 and put it on the 63600 did not work!

Hey there lhawli,

May I know where you bought the 69200 bracelet from? I have been trying very hard to source for one.

Thanks in advance!
