Fat Lady and a Jubile band.

Hi there,

Can I put a Jubile band on a GMT Master II 16760? If so which one?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Yes, I had a 1984 fat lady with a jubilee that came original to the watch. 62510 with 502 end links and the marking of 50 on the final link that attaches to the end links would be correct. Here was the listing. Hope this helps. http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=393399

That is totally correct but I wanted to add that you can also use the easier-to-find jubilee from a datejust (final links will not be stamped "50" as mentioned above) by utilizing 1.8mm instead of 2mm springbars.

The first answer was the correct one and listed what you need.

If you go the DJ bracelet route you have an endlink that is a 36mm contour so slightly mis-matched to your 40mm case, and the 1.8mm spring-bars are a slight mis-match to the pierced lugs.. It is a compromise, although many, many members are more than happy with this combination. It's the same compromise with the Super Jubilee, just more expensive...
