Yes, it's already been done - both, the older style (with clasp) Jubilee as well as the new Super Jubilee.

I think the original poster wants to know if the jubilee from a Datejust (w/o '50' endlinks) will fit on a GMT.

Dan, your photos are amazingly sharp, bright, and clear. The shine on that steel is just amazing in how you captured it.

Thanks for the kind words.
No problem. I use a Panasonic DMC-TZ1 and use either macro or auto mode. In other words it's got nothin' to do with me. My photo shoots consist of arranging the subject inside a large, white, plastic garbage can with a strong light source placed outside. The garbage can acts as a very effective diffuser.
Then.............practice, practice, practice.

The older DJs did not have the Super Jubilee; so it will have to be one of the newer DJ models with the "wider" case.

The Super Jubilee has ALL solid links and a hidden clasp.

JJ's right. I think the new style DateJust came out in 2004[???]. Experts please correct me if I've got that wrong.

I think you're right - either late 2003 or 2004 on Super Jubilee or the new Oyster..............and with the RED/BLACK date combo wheel - odd dates in RED and even dates in BLACK!!

The "old-style" (non-super jub) bracelet will certainly fit a GMT, however the links on a DJ jub are very slightly more narrow than the links on a GMT jub. The most recent old-stock jubilee came with 555 end links whereas the GMT jubilee used 502. The radius of the 555 will not sit flush with the GMT case, but you could certainly use the actual DJ bracelet on a GMT provided that you also use the 502 end links. However, given the difference in the link width, there will be a visible step between the 502 end links and the first link on the DJ jubilee.

they are interchangable..however you cannot use the springbar from your gmt because it is too thick to go thru the endlinks so you have to use the narrow datejust springbar..

I have the old style Jubilee fitted on my Pepsi by Rolex and it looks great. Every time I see Dan's pictures though, I turn green with envy. The old Jubilee has pretty much the same look (at least on first glance) but the Super is in a different league. I have to get one some day.

Jubilee is certainly the way to go on GMT though, whether Super or the old type. It's very much a classic look for the GMT, the only Rolex tool watch where the Jubilee is truly at home.
