it looks like all 36mm DJ with Jubilee Bracelet will come with "Folding Oysterclasp with Easylink 5 mm comfort extension link" instead of the hidden clasp!

soundwave · 21 March 2018, 10:07 PM

I welcome this change!

busytimmy · 21 March 2018, 10:09 PM

Not ideal, is it? At least the 41mm and 36mm will now be the same in that regard.

nikesupremedunk · 21 March 2018, 10:13 PM

Oh wow, Glad I got mine with the hidden clasp even though I can’t get a perfect fit!

H-Watches · 21 March 2018, 10:31 PM

Where are you finding this I can’t seen anything about it in their website.

The hidden clasp was a nice feature but the "old" jubilee always had a real clasp and because of that I really like the jubilee of my DJ41.

go to Rolex website and click on any of the DJ 36mm variants with jubilee bracelet then scroll down to the part where it say "CLASP"

That’s a terrible decision. The hidden clasp is really elegant. I was waiting for the DJ41s to get it and now they’re going in the wrong direction. At least I have it on my DD.

watchwatcher · 21 March 2018, 11:50 PM

Much prefer the easy link.

kauffee · 22 March 2018, 12:10 AM

I was planning to pick up a DJ36 sometime in the future and the jubilee hidden clasp was a definitely something I wanted. Might have to change my plan.

OpusXIII · 22 March 2018, 12:12 AM

Bad decision in my opinion. I opted for a 36mm over the 41 for the sole reason that I wanted the hidden clasp on the jubilee. To me, I think it looks much nicer than with a clasp. I have the clasps on my Subs. Didn't want it on the DJ.

Fisi · 22 March 2018, 12:13 AM

The square-set new case design of the DJ36 is a huge retrograde step, too.

The traditional oyster case lug curves jettisoned in favor of a generic angular brick, for no apparent reason.

zjd168 · 22 March 2018, 12:41 AM

if this is true then I don't need to wait for the 36 dj with the new movement. Love the hidden clasp. Well at least I have it in my DD

borneau · 22 March 2018, 01:06 AM

Page 10 of the downloadable brochure still shows the concealed Crownclasp.

vladamir15 · 22 March 2018, 02:01 AM

That would singlehandedly be the worst decision for rolex. The hidden clasp is great.

tgoddu · 22 March 2018, 02:02 AM

I still see "Concealed folding Crownclasp"

This thread seems like fake news

tomchicago · 22 March 2018, 02:06 AM

Another fumble imo.

kcmo · 22 March 2018, 02:07 AM

What a pity

rossi46 · 22 March 2018, 02:09 AM

I'm withholding judgement until I see a pic.

Anyone have one???

Maiden · 22 March 2018, 02:12 AM

Rolex website clearly states the jubilee has the folding oysterclasp with easy link extension. Crown clasp is gone!

I think you may have been looking at one of the existing models instead of the new release. I just checked both and the SS jubilee says “concealed crownclasp” while the TT jubilee says “folding Oysterclasp”

RolexPD · 22 March 2018, 03:37 AM

This appears to be true only for the new TT version. The SS version still shows the hidden crown clasp on the Rolex website.

Tangier11 · 22 March 2018, 03:39 AM

I own the hidden clasp and I love it. I would not buy the new one.

Yes that's because the new version is only in TT. When the new version SS comes out, most likely next year it will have the same Oysterclasp. If you want the crownclasp you will have to buy a previous model.

Same here. I bought my DJ specifically because I wanted a hidden clasp jubilee bracelet. The oysterclasp really messes up the look of piece in my opinion.

Hidden clasp was a great feature. Shame to see it go.

DanMdR · 22 March 2018, 07:20 AM

You think they’d be able to somehow invent a hidden clap with an expanding “easy link” like feature.
