New Rolex Batman + Question

Hey guys,

Finally got my long-awaited Rolex 126710 this week, definitely stoked and thankful for this watch as this is my first Rolex.

2 Quick questions about Rolex and the new GMT...

1.) Does Rolex sell oyster bracelets and other accessories standalone?
2.) Is it possible to switch out the jubilee bracelet for the Oyster bracelet?

I love the feel and look of the jubilee now, but I know many preferred the look of the Gen 1 batman because it's sportier. I am asking because of it would be awesome of at least have the optionality of switching different kinds of bracelet. I much prefer to new movement and the smaller lug to lug of Gen 2, but can definitely see why some people prefer this color scheme to be on an oyster.

I am not sure on the bracelet swap I don't think so but I am no expert.

I just got the 126710 Batman with Jubilee and like combo. However, I also have a Sub C Black dial with Oyster and looking at getting 2004-2005 16710 Pepsi with Oyster.

Yes the oyster bracelet will fit the jubilee BLNR, several people had reported that. Rolex would only sell you a bracelet that was offered in your watch model, so you would not be able to buy it from them. You can probably sourced it through some AD’s or buy it here on the forums

Speaking for myself once I felt the comfort of the Jubilee bracelet I never thought to go back to an oyster which I wore for 12 years on a Submariner. I think the brushed oyster looks ok but that polished center link one is why I never bought a GMT Master ll until the Jubilee was available. Don't be influence by what other's think do what you like.

There have been a few posters on this forum who has put an oyster on the batgirl. I like the jubilee bracelet better personally but what you want done is definitely possible
