History

The Rolex Jubilee bracelet was first launched by the Swiss watchmaker in 1945. It was the result of Rolex’s desire to create an original style that would offer both sophistication and comfort.

As the name suggests, it was released to celebrate the Jubilee celebration of Rolex’s 40th anniversary. At the time, it was specifically designed for only the Datejust line, but then introduced to the GMT-Master in 1959. In more recent years, it has appeared on the Sky-Dweller.

The bracelet was initially launched only in solid gold, as it was marketed as a luxurious upgrade. However over the years, other metals have been introduced in different combinations such as steel (then Oystersteel), white, rose and yellow gold.

This simple design allows the pattern of the Jubilee links to run seamlessly around the wrist.

The bracelet was initially only available in solid gold but eventually came to become offered in two-tone and steel variants. The only metals not available are full gold and platinum.
