Bracelet Question: Oyster, PCLs and Jubilee

I have 2 Rolex watches: a Sub reference 114060 and DJ41 reference 126334. The Sub naturally has the brushed oyster. The DJ41 has the jubilee. I am in the market for a GMT Master II. If I get the 116710 BLNR, I will have the Oyster with PCLs.

Will I be able to switch the jubilee on my 126334 with the Oyster on the 116710? This would give me a lot of flexibility and variety.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I think they are all 20 mm lug width. In theory, it should work. The spring bars would be the question at hand.

I defer to someone more knowledgeable.

So with an extra set of spring bars I am good to go?

All 20mm but the inner lug hole spacing may differ slightly on the DJ41 though I am not 100% sure. Try it and see

The answer is right there in your hand already.

I have a 116710 LN and it bought a brand new sub bracelet and swapped it out from the PCL bracelet that came with the LN, but you have to use the spring bars that come with the GMT’s PCL bracelet to get the fit.

Try putting your sub bracelet on your DJ, but use the DJ spring bars and see if it fits. If the brushed sub bracelet will fit, then so will the PCL bracelet from the BLNR.

This will 100% NOT work, DJ41 is a 21mm lug width and the 11 series sub and GMT are 20mm.
The 2 oysters will be interchangeable but the jubilee too wide.

You’d need a jubilee from a DJ36 or a new BLNR/BLRO. And to mess around to find the correct springbars.

If you get a 12 series sub this will work though!

For sure, 100%, the first part of this is accurate. The DJ41 is 21mm. While the new sub is also 21mm I’m not convinced it will mate to the DJ41 case.

You can get the DJ41 PCL oyster from some ADs for about $1500.

You'll want a super jubilee (off of a 36mm DJ; references 63200 or 63600) for your Sub or GMT (or of course the jubilee from a 126710).
