Hi All!

Hi TRF crew,

Wanted to say thank you for providing such a wealth of information to help me on my journey to my first Rolex purchase.

I've currently got a Datejust 41 ref: 126331 (chocolate dial/stick indices) on it's way from the lovely team at Chronext.

What I am hoping for is some assistance regarding the bracelets specifically. I've tried the watch on with an oyster and I just love the look of the solid chunky links - they contrast the fluted bezel very nicely (in my opinion). The issue is I want to have my cake and eat it too - I'd like to have a jubilee bracelet as an option for more formal wear.

I know the watch comes with the 63600 super jubilee as an option, and I've done a search online and on TRF and it seems like the two-tone in rose gold is rare as hen's teeth, so I'm hoping that you guys can answer a couple of questions:

- Are there any reputable sellers of "Rolex-style" bracelets who can source me a two-tone rose gold/stainless steel Jubilee?

- Is there a way to adapt the older-style hollow-link Jubilee to fit the Datejust 41 or will it just look odd?


Any other advice or opinions is also welcome!

Thanks!

- Grug

Hopefully, although I imagine as the bracelets become more common they may start to appear on the secondary market...

I've tried to post in the WTB forum but for some reason can't. Is there a minimum post count required?
