1976 Jubilee Bracelet

I’m looking at purchasing a 1976 DateJust. A close up image shows the side of the bracelet which has small openings. I can’t figure out how to post a photo from my iPhone into this forum. Any advice?.

Welcome to the Forum!

Do you mean like the one below?! If so, it is is referred as folded links.

What is the question? The folded link bracelet shown above would potentially be correct for your watch, but we'd need more information about the watch and the bracelet to confirm. Serial number of the watch, engravings on the bracelet and clasp, etc. You can add small photos by using the Go Advanced feature and then Manage Attachments.

1976 Datejust a Jubilee Bracelet- rpc2112

All: I’m considering buying a 1976 datejust from a reputable online source. Upon closer look at the jubilee bracelet, I noticed this rolled or “crimped” links. Seller said bracelet is original and stamped. And it is. Nevertheless, is this “crimped” link bracelet normal? I haven’t seen these before. Thank you!

As noted in your other thread:

https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=933244

this is known as a folded link Jubilee bracelet and it is common on 1970s watches, but I think the changeover to a solid link bracelet happened sometime around 1976 so this might be one of the last watches with a folded link bracelet, if it is the original one.

This appears to be a standard common folded link jubilee bracelet. As I mentioned previously, we can't make a judgement about whether it is legit and/or original without more information and photos about the watch and the bracelet.
