The question everyone wants to know the answer to. Will the new super jubilee bracelet fit a 16710 without lug holes? YES! I apologize for the pictures as I wanted to get the answer out here. Will try to take some better ones this weekend. Right now the bracelet has to go back on my new 116234 so I can enjoy it. I had to know and the minute I unboxed my new watch off came the bracelet and onto the GMT II it went.

Nice!!! Great looking combination... frankensteiner!

stevemulholland3 · 16 January 2009, 09:26 AM

sweet!
now I am going to have seven e-mails asking if I can get the new jubilee..
they are very expensive by themselves..

buz-lh · 16 January 2009, 09:29 AM

Steve, I know. I stumbled across a great deal on the watch looking for a bracelet. Based on the price of the bracelet alone I couldn't say no.

Great news Buz!

javierleon · 16 January 2009, 09:36 AM

Real good news. Well done

Looks like it fits, but the SEL is not flush on the back side of the case.

Is it possible to get a macro shot between the lugs an both sides?

For some reason it looks like a larger gap in the pics. In person it looks like a damn near perfect match.

Great work, Buz.

Hold on to your SEL's, JJ!

Totally agree Larry. It's a great look.

HOGULA · 16 January 2009, 02:47 PM

That is a great combination. I like!!!

Lubrifar · 16 January 2009, 03:09 PM

Finally! Thanks for the confirmation Buz! As mentioned, I would also like to see how the end links are fitted into the lugs as it appears that they are slightly larger? How does the super jubilee wear compare to the oyster?

sevykor · 16 January 2009, 03:20 PM

Looks great and you get the durability you deserve too.

JJ Irani · 17 January 2009, 01:42 AM

WHOA!! Thanks a million, Buz. At last the 64,000 Dollar question has been answered!! That looks absolutely terrific!!

Can't thank you enough.

Hmmm...........now that would be the next question!

Will the Super Jubilee fit the Exp-II without lug holes?

MrCowboy99 · 17 January 2009, 05:25 AM

Will RSC (USA) swap it for you if you were willing to leave the oyster behind and pay the cost?

mfer · 17 January 2009, 05:30 AM

Man, I'm gonna have to find me one of those and a 16710.

Doh!

Would you leave for the lake already?

BTW, have a great time.

Regarding comfort, the jubilee is more comfortable to me as it seems to mold to my skinny 7" wrist a little better.

I seriously doubt they will be participating in our celebration. They're big into unmodifiying watches unless its something like a dial/hands upgrade within the same model. Too bad, we do need sources for this one.
