55 end links

if I want to fit a jubilee to my gmt or exp 2.....which 55 ends do I need? Will any set work or is there a 1601 version and a 1675 version? Also what about the 550? What is the difference?

I have an 83 jubilee bracelet and a USA jubilee bracelet.

Thanks.

55 will work, 550 and 50. The 55 or 50 do not have spring bar tubes in them. The spring bars go through the two rings that fit inside the end links. GMTs use larger spring bars so it might be necessary to open up the two rings a little so the spring bars will fit through them. (Datejusts and some like models that use the Jubilee 6251 or 62510 bracelet have smaller ring holes than the Jubilees made for the GMTs. Vintage USA oval-link Jubilees normally fit well on the Datejust or GMT models without the necessity of opening up the rings.)

Good luck!
