Anyhow, if the potential buyer of the other watch didn’t want an oyster on his watch, he could ask to have a jubilee as well. |

Update. Got off the phone with Rolex. If you want to switch you CAN. It’s $1400 for the oyster bracelet if you have the jubilee. I’m actually pissed because my AD had me buy 2 watches. Anyways there you go. Confirmed from Rolex direct. I stand corrected. My next call will be to my AD. But feel like it will be pointless unless I can get on the Pepsi waitlist because of their err that cost me 9k.

I’m sure if I asked them to change it to a non-standard combo they would object. |

For what it's worth, a little sight seeing over in the classified section shows that the North American warranty card for a DateJust 41 shows the reference number - 126334, dial color - Blue, Black, etc and the bracelet - 72610 for oyster bracelet and 62610 for jubilee bracelet. Whether this will lead to problems with RSC or selling watch in future - your guess is as good as mine.

It definitely can be switched. When I purchased my DJ41 it had a jubilee bracelet on it and I had it swapped for an oyster.

I agree. After talking to Rolex and explaining the situation they told me that they can not switch the bands at store level. This is where the salesman got it mixed up. Anyways getting on the Pepsi list was a no but after talking to the AD manager I seem to be next on the SS skydweller blue that I have been eyeing even though I don’t “remember” Puting my name on any “list”. So I have a feeling there is no concrete order to these “list”. I also asked if swapping out bracelets is allowed at store level and I got a no. So those who have swapped have been lucky. Was told if a certain configuration was not available it must be ordered. So I don’t know anymore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

For $1400 to have almost 2 different Rolex watches is a steal. I can tell you that the oyster and jubilee wear miles different. Had I known this earlier I obviously would have went that route and not paid so much for another DJ. To me knowing this makes the DJ41 a must buy if your wrist can fit it. It’s too small for my wrist so I got the DJll. So only oyster for me unless you can tell me a jubilee that will fit the DJll. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It’s likely down to springbars but nothing else. I put a Sub bracelet on my LN GMT and it will only snap into place using the springbars from the GMT’s PCL bracelet, NOT with the springbars from the sub bracelet. Don’t know how that is, but it is.
The DJ2 cannot accept a Jubilee bracelet so you’re stuck with oyster if you buy a DJ2. |

They will change the Bracelet in store if the watches on display aren't configured as the customer wishes with respect to dial and bezel with either Bracelet option. With option being the operative word. |

Thanks. I’m ok with the oyster but would like the jubilee for weekends. On well. I knew this while trading my DJ41 for it. But to me the extra few mm makes all the difference. I’ll stick with the DJll for now and maybe after my diet look at the DJ41 again knowing I can switch bracelets. I think the silver dial would be unbeatable. I liked the black dial but with the crystal being a fingerprint magnet I noticed I was wiping it all the time. With the rhodium hardly ever. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

But honestly... Rolex is an expensive purchase. I believe most of the people would want to buy a watch with all original parts that came from the factory. I personally would not buy a watch from AD with "swapped" bracelet. there is a reason people buy from AD. To make sure everything is original, brand new. |

Can be done - I saw my AD did it right infront of me when I asked the same question before I purchased my 126300.

DateJust 41 question
Every watch that I have bought has had the bracelet number written on the warranty card right under the serial number and model number.
I can’t imagine that an AD ( in USA at least as that is what my experience is) would replace a bracelet with another watch, thereby making two brand new watches not match their respective warranty cards. If my AD offered to do that, I would not buy from them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s most likely possible I have a DJ 36 with both bracelets and can swap them out really easy.

They lied to you to get you to spend money. I would certainly not reward them by giving them more money. |

Sorry, you are wrong. My AD swapped the Oyster for a Jubilee on the spot, on a new watch, while I watched.. It took no time at all. They are interchangeable, that's not an 'opinion', it's a fact.

Maybe but the serial numbers tell what bracelet is supposed to be on the watch. When you send it into service I hope you don’t have a hard time. I just find it hard to believe. I wanted my first watch jubilee. Could have just swapped but told me they would order and it would be in 2 weeks. Maybe some ADs have different policies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Bought my wife a lady datejust 26 tt fluted jubilee in Dec 2017 (last of the old stock) The AD told me that it was originally on an oyster and was swapped because someone wanted the oyster when they bought a watch. He said the new warranty card shows oyster so we’ll have to get you a new warranty card from Rolex. He showed me the card which had the watch reference and the oyster reference. A week later I received a new warranty card with no bracelet reference.
He said it’s perfectly normal practice to swap bracelets and going forward a lot of warranty cards won’t have Bracelet info on, so that we can swap bracelets in store. The 36 is no exception and neither is the 41. |
