The Jubilee looks great on the Sub 16800 as well as many other Rolex models. Very nice change.

I wear my Sub with a jubilee. Very comfortable. I remember putting it on my right wrist instead of my normal left wrist once. I got in a real panic when I looked at my left wrist and it was missing ! I phoned my wife to see if I'd left it on the dresser. Just as she was searching for it at home I realised I was still wearing it !
It belonged to my dad at one time. I believe when he bought it ( mid eighties ) you could chose a jubilee bracelet instead of the standard choice. |

Your 1603 bracelet will work just fine. It is all about the endlinks. What model sub are you looking to use the bracelet with? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you for the very helpful link. But it didn't mention if the 55 end links would work becuase i already ordered a pair of 55's. Would u know? I temporarily installed a pair of 555's but it doesn't fir right.

The 55 end links will work with the Jubilee and you can still use the 2mm spring bars - they are the standard full size spring bars for a GMT 16750.
By the way, I have a Jubilee 62510 on my GMT 16750 and use 55 end links with 2mm spring bars. 555 end links require smaller 1.8mm spring bars. 550 end links use the 2mm spring bars.
