Datejust 16014 Jubilee link sizes

Hello,

I need one or two of the adjustable links for a '86-87 Rolex Datejust with a Jubilee bracelet model 16014. I found a couple of sellers who sell aftermarket for 16014 16mm links, but they don't fit. Is there another size for these (15mm or 15.5mm?). Where might I find these.? Did Rolex vary the sizes of these in different years? Thanks,

Donn

I assume you are talking about links for a 62510H bracelet If you are looking for links that go on the 12 o'clock side and fit under the clasp, they are about 15.3mm wide.

Thanks for the reply,

You mentioned the 12 o'clock link under the clasp as a 15.3mm. What about on the 6 o'clock side, are they a different size? Are the links next to the clasp link a different size? Are there various sizes among the adjustable links on this watch? Are any of them 16mm?

It's possible that they are nominally 15.5mm and my measurement was a little off or reflect a tiny bit of polishing. But no way they are 16mm.

16mm sounds like superjubilee 21mm bracelet links. Or?

Usually a 62510H link is -as mentioned- around 15,3-15,5 (depending polishing).

Datejust 16014 Jubilee link sizes

There is a company that sells 16mm removable links for the 62510H, but the 16mm links on that bracelet model all seem like they are the non removable links that are further up the bracelet, so I have to return them. Does anyone know where I can buy 15.5m removable jubilee links, even if they are not genuine rolex parts?

I see them on eBay pretty regularly, including now. They come and go. I also suspect that you might be able to get links from Rolex directly.

The problem with the AM links is that the quality is poor and the screwheads and threads are stripped really easily.
