Jubilee band

I got a question for all the vintage experts. When was the Jubilee band introduced? Inquiring minds want to know

I think it was in the mid 1950's.

I found a web site that says 1960 but I don't know whether to believe them or not.

You mean Patrick. I wasn't sure myself and in fact was a decade late.

The Jubilee bracelet was introduced in 1945 along with the Datejust. It commemorated the Jubilee celebration of the Rolex Company. Originally, the Jubilee designation was supposed to apply to the DJ, but it only stuck to the bracelet.

The DJ Jubilee was only fitted with it's original Jubilee bracelet until the Day Date came out in 1956... at that time, Rolex began offering the DJ with the Oyster Bracelet
