Hi!

I’ve been searching the forum without any success so figure I’ll reach out for some help.

I recently purchased a OP date 1500 (or 1501?) which needs some TLC is now receding just this.

I want to get hold of a jubilee bracelet that will fit the watch but don’t know which reference to look for. So far I’ve understood that there is a 19mm version of the 62510 jubilee and that this would fit. However, I’m having trouble finding the reference of the 19mm version.

Help is greatly appreciated!

The oval link (USA or Mexico) will work with 19mm or 20mm endlinks, but the bracelet looks better on a 36mm reference (or Daytona) imho because it doesn’t have much taper.

57 or 574 endlinks

This is what I’m looking for!
Nice watch JW!
My 1501 (as it turns out) came with 574 end links but on a 20mm wide jubilee. I thought it’d be simple enough to have the upper most links removed on each side but the guy who serviced the watch said it isn’t.
Is there a unique reference number of the 19mm jubilee?

That one looks like a D link. There is a 19mm jubilee, but they seem very difficult to find. The oval link jubilee is suitable for 19mm or 20mm as I said previously. The 19mm endlinks are rare and sought after by people with Daytonas.

Correct that it’s a d-link. Think I prefer this to the oval version.
Will start my hunt for a bracelet.
Should I expect a price difference between the 19mm and 20mm version of 62510?

I think they all tend to be about the same- just be really wary of the stretch, you need to see the side profile in full flex. Getting one restored will add $350+ to the cost

Thanks! I will be on the hunt. Ideally I’d do a straight switch. My 62510 20mm against a 19mm version. Fingers crossed!

What year or serial is your watch OP? A smooth bezel OP may not have come with a jubilee.

The ovals are the best IMO. A really finished yet vintage look, and very comfortable.

Hi Dan,
Apologies that I totalt nisses this post. Was reading back some old posts and saw it now halft a year later!

My 1501 is from -74, serial 3676331. I suspect someone has swapped the engine turned bezel for a smooth one somewhere along the line.

I gave up on finding a 19mm jubilee and opted for an oyster bracelet. Very happy with that choice.

Looks great. With the oyster bracelet, it's a true GADA.
