DJ with recently installed jubilee bracelet! Looks like a different watch than with the black strap I got it with.

Seems like the end links are not the ones you need on that Datejust based on the wide space between the endlink and the watch case on that picture. What is the model of the watch and the model of the end link?

The strap is a 6252H.14 the watch is a 16233. I'm new to this and didn't know there was a problem. Can I get a replacement for the end link? Is the problem that it's bent or damaged? Thanks!

Check your picture, where you can see your skin in between the end link and the body of the case due to a gap:



Versus the way it should be: end link sitting against the case:



The endlinks are removable in the older bracelets and replaceable; many individual models share the same bracelet model, but use different end links to fit different cases. The endlinks you have should be numbered like the ones I'm showing here (which are from a stainless steel bracelet, rather than 2 tone like yours):




The ones am showing you are 555 endlinks. What is the model stamped in your end links? I think you need 455B endlinks, similar to this one below:

It looks like J (on left) 55 (on right) on each link.

Are you refering to the last fix link on the bracelet or the actual end link which you can remove by removing the springbar? (picture would help). If that's on the endlink then you have 55 endlinks and would need to source the correct ones for your watch. You can source them through an AD or new/used here or online (Ebay, craiglist, etc)

Yes it does, thanks. Your bracelet is an older style, with folded links, so not familiar with the 55 end links. I think as said before you would need the 455B end links to get a proper fit.
