There's a slight gap on the HR. If you zoom in on my pics you can see it's not always flush against the curve of the case. You may be able to shape the end links more to fix this, I haven't tried as the jubilee fits out of box with zero modification. The small gap doesn't bother me, as it looks similar to how the old vintage bracelets fit. I don't know of one that sits flush hopefully others chime in who have a different jubilee.

Many thanks for the response!

Many thanks for the response!

If you can excuse that my photography is nowhere near as good as @TheMeasure, I can recommend a jubilee that looks like it fits the KW at least as well as the HR, and a fair bit less expensive too. Picked mine up from ebay seller gladshop, less than $20. I'm sure you could modify the endlinks to get a perfectly flush fit, but they look great to me out of the box, and there's zero movement - just be sure to use a good set of springbars, not the ones it comes with.

Thanks, Pete! That looks like a damn good fit. I think I'll have to chase one down.

Do the MKII spring bars work with the end links, or are they too fat?

The MKII bars fit! Might need a bit of elbow grease though!

Hey! Just wanted to say thank you again for the info on the jubilee. It took a while to arrive, but it's a great fit! Just what I was looking for!

I watched an old 1965 film from Pan Am and Rolex called “Travelling through Time” that had a brief glimpse of a 1675 on a jubilee.

Search on Youtube for Periscope Films’ channel, then search for that film. Rather pedestrian film, but a little amusing.

Steinhart makes a high quality jubilee with SEL. Does anyone know if it would fit on the Key West?

I think the jubilee braclet really works +1 here.

Hi-

Thanks for the kind words! If you look back about six posts (to my last post here) you'll see all the info on the bracelet. It was recommended to me by another forum member and it fits the Key West quite well. Came from eBay seller Gladshop.

It should, possibly with some light mods (39 vs 40mm case). Make sure you use one from the Steinhart 39 (20 mm lug width like the KW), the 42 has a 22 mm.

Wholesaleoutlet990 jubilee on my Key West. I believe it gives it a more “Pan Am” look.

Howdy --
There is quite a bit of old information about fitting generic "Jubilee-style" bracelets to the Kingston-Nassau-Key West family watch case.

Hello,

Debating throwing a jubilee style bracelet on my KW. Are there any suggestions for bracelets to buy? Pictures are always welcome too-specifically if you have a matte dial KW.

Thanks!

Hadley Roma and set and forget.
