Il fermaglio!
Actually I have never used this word for the clasp. Such an interesting contribution Bill, Thank you.
I remember in the seventies my father arguing about his friends with a jubilee bracelet on their Submariners. It was so anti-diver! His 6538 had a hollow-riveted, stretchable oyster bracelet (could have it been a 7206?) with a broken 78360 clasp (I do not know why). It could adjust over those amazing black-orange neoprene dive suits or just pull your hair out the wrist! The jubilees were of no use for such activities.
Rolex Jubilee bracelet 6251H (Homme) Review of the unsung hero.

I know it's just Rolex minutiae but it is fun stuff to know.
We really learn by observation and example. Thanks Bil
My favorite kind of vintage Rolex bracelet---
suits perfectly the GMT Great post dear Bill Cheers D
Thank you for such a comprehensive post.
I've always liked the Jubilee bracelet and initially, wanted to switch out the Oyster to Jubilee. Other than it not fitting anyway, I've grown to like the oyster and it matches better on my (given to son) Daytona and other pieces. Aloha, Bob
Looks I agree are personal but the performance and comfort - not pinched hairs- great on a Jubilee.
I do favor the Oyster myself but I do appreciate the comfort and feel of the jubilee. Best Bill
I've yet to experience a Jubilee.
All the pieces I like don't come with it. :-( or maybe Aloha, Bob
Now we can all claim to be experts. Easy one reference one main endlink.
And on main model used it in the 60'sand 70's. And it is not the most popular so nobody wants to argue. Hagwe Bill
I'm not sure which is more amazing...
... the breadth and depth of knowledge possessed by those on this site, or their willingness to share it. Unfortunately I have little of either so I tend to keep my mouth shut :-/ Thanks! RM
The only stupid questions are the ones you don't ask.
Thank you for your remarks which are very true. It is all about sharing not showing off. It is always a pleasure to share. Bill
