126500LN with superjubilee 63600

Hi,

Has anyone tried on the sj bracelet on the new daytona refs ? Does it fit like on the 11 series ? Or does the Re worked lugs make it a no go ?

There is a small contingent of us out there who wear our 116500 and 116520 references with a Super Jubilee. We think it improves the experience and harkens back to the vintage models. From what I understand, the 126500 has 20mm lugs, even with the new symmetrical design. So, in theory, the Super Jubilee should fit. I have not read of anyone who has attempted yet, but am anxiously awaiting the first pics. I love the new tweaks to the Daytona and believe Rolex has nailed it, but will not buy the 126500 if it won’t accommodate a Jubilee. That’s a deal breaker for me!

Please try on and post here :) I think this could look really great with the 12 reference being a bit more "classy" compared to the 11 series.

I rarely like mods but the Daytona looks so good on a jubilee. This needs to become an official option.

Thank you for swapping a bracelet for us to confirm our desires! Never realized that the end links are different between the Super Jubilee (63600) and the current GMT Jubilee. A completely different look between the two, in my opinion. Will have to live with them for a while to decide which I prefer. It would be greatly appreciated if more pics are posted the more people try to experiment!

Bear in mind that with the old 116500 the super jubilee 63600 fits very well. With the old 116500 the fit with the BLRO / BLNR jubilee is worse and need to use smaller springbars.

So still not sure if the super jubilee 63600 will fit the new 126500

Dear all,
I can confirm the 63600 super jubilee does not work on the new daytona 126500.
As i expected.
Ashame? Yes and no.
Unfortunately i can not test with a jubilee from a GMT Master but my guess is it will be the same.


I can not post photos but i will send some to karleone who might repost them

Hi all

126500 with a GMT II Jubilee does not work. I have tried it. The end link is about 1 or 2 mm too far from the case and it is not tight and wobbles
