126710BLRO Jubilee bracelet question?

Hi,

I currently own an 116710LN and wear it relatively snug on the 78200 Oyster bracelet with 4 links on the 6 o'clock side and 5 links + easylink (folded/short) in the middle micro adjustment slot.

Waiting for a 126710BLRO to arrive within the next month(s) from my AD, fingers crossed. 😊
Would appreciate feedback from GMT fans on what configuration of links on the new 69200 Jubilee bracelet would offer the same size/fit as described above?

Thanks, /Max

I would assume you have a 6 inch wrist like mine since I use the same configuration for oyster bracelets as well.

Below is my 126710BLRO

Many thanks!

Ok, so 5 links at 6 o’clock and 8 links at 12 o’clock with easylink folded in the middle micro adjustment slot?

Does the case and clasp sit center on the wrist and is it snug on the wrist?

Thanks again!

6.75inch wrist

Daytona oysters:
12 side = 7
6 side = 4
easy link is last (inside) hole folded in

BLRO jubilee
12 side = 11
6 side = 6
easy link is middle hole folded in

But you won't really know until you get the watch to size

I would think since you are getting it from an AD, they will require that they size it to your wrist before you leave the store. Unisized watches fetch a little more on the used market. They are called "unworn."

Thanks, all!

Yes, the AD will size it for me like they did with my 116710.

My question was aimed at figuring out the configuration of the 69200 Jubilee bracelet that would be equivalent of how I wear my 78200 Oyster bracelet.

Yup 9 links at 12 o’clock folded in. It does sit center on the wrist.

I have a Sky-Dweller on jubilee. I wear 13 on 12 o'clock and 7 on 6 o'clock. Wrist is 7.125 inches. Clasp blades are centered on wrist. How do you guys have yours configured. Just seems strange to have it so lopsided.
