I'm not sure if they are 1.8mm but the fit is perfect with the spring bars that came with the Daytona. I used the ones that came with jubil e bracelet but they are identical.

The look would definitely be amazing, but the weight and color of white gold wouldn't work IMO.

Not sure what you mean, but it's a regular jubilee bracelet off a DJ 116234. I think it's a 63600 or 63606 (I forget exactly).

Thanks! I was surprised too. It feels incredible. I dare say, I might actually like the look better than the stock PCL oyster bracelet.

Was that off a DJ?

I recently fitted an Oysterflex to my Daytona but it was not comfortable at all. Was just doing a test run in case I wanted the new Basel release instead of the 116500.
Same answer above, came from a 116234, I believe the bracelet number is 63600.

Gotta see a pic of the oysterflex on Daytona! Take any? Thanks.

The Daytona is a classy piece. Looks good on the Jubilee.

I always liked the jubilee on the new GMTs, but this is the first time I've seen this on a Daytona. It works for me!

I personally prefer it on oyster but it's nice to have the option. Agreed with some posters that it looks too busy. Sporty dial/case combo and dressy bracelet clash somewhat.

Jubilee on my Daytona C 116500

Just one - and was for a WRUW wristshot a few days back. I don't recommend this mod due to fitment issues. The original alligator strap was more comfy. I wanted to try a more water friendly combo for the upcoming sweaty Summer season.





It was not the new Oysterflex for Daytona - can't be ordered yet AFAIK. Just FYI the one I used for the YM has a different clasp end. It is narrower than the Daytona Oysterflex so fitment isn't perfect but worked well enough for a day of light duty. I believe a strong yank on the strap if it were caught on something could end in grief.

As I took a long walk and worked up a sweat, the strap was uncomfortable as it see-sawed around my wrist. Partly my fault as I like a loose fitting strap/bracelet. Methinks Oysterflex needs to be just right and above the wristbone.

It's a shame the Jubilee is not an option on the Daytona and GMT.

Looks awesome!! Makes me like the black dial version a lot to the point where I may like that better than the white dial.
