Interesting. My AD will allow a trade but won’t sell separately. However the wait is 5-8 months…are you looking to swap or add?

Unfortunately not a whole lot of options. Best bet is to go grey. Was in the same boat a few months back. Never looked back.

What is the official price for the GMT jubliee bracelet (when Rolex used to sell them separately...)? and how much do they go for in the grey market these days?

I waited for the Batman for over a year. When I first put my name down, my AD told me that I could get the jubilee bracelet from Rolex separarte. But when I finally got the Batman this month, he told me that Rolex had changed the policy and they were not able to order a separate bracelet from Rolex now.

I think I spent around 3500 to get a jubilee grey. Was still wrapped in all of the original Rolex stickers and hadn’t been worn or sized. I haven’t taken it off my Pepsi since.

This has been asked many, many time.

You can either (1) badger ADs and RSC hoping you get lucky, or (2) peruse the FS section and find one that way, at a premium.

Try different shops. You’ll find one willing to sell you one.

RSC and Rolex ADs can’t order the Jubilee for any GMTs anymore.

You can’t even switch them out when sending in for service. Supply is low and Rolex can’t keep up with everyone wanting to switch from oyster to jubilee.

Best bet if is buy one grey if you can find one. Looking at 3-4k for one.

You can then sell your oyster for 1500-2000.

FS forum and inquiry with folks that have sold them in the past.

Just remove the bracelet from the watch and tell the Rolex SC you lost it and ask them to sell/ install the Jubilee

Current price for the jubilee bracelet at Rolex is £1750.02 in the UK. Tried buying it a week ago. They don't sell it if your watch originally came on oyster.

I picked up an Oyster for £1400 4 weeks ago, small amount of discount was given the RRP was £1600.

But if your GMT came on a jubilee you could buy the oyster bracelet from Rolex??

That's a big leap in price in a short while.

Wow, that is strange considering both PEPSI GMT models have the same model number. I would guess this is to slow down bracelet sales since the BLRO on Jubilee was introduced 4 years (2018) before the BLRO Oyster (2021). They are keeping the newer model more untouched for now and will likely open up jubilee sales in a few years to the newer BLRO on oyster.

I would get on the phone and the internet and find the bracelet at an AD or secondary market source.
