Rolex bracelets come in three different types, which are easily recognizable, and esthetically unique to the benefit of different tastes. The most popular model of modern times, is the Oyster Bracelet. It has the largest links available on a Rolex bracelet, and is the least likely to “stretch” from frictional wear over time. The clasp which comes with the Oyster bracelet is also compatible with a “blocked integration” rubber strap made by the same team as brands such as Hublot, Omega, and Audemars Piguet.
The Jubilee Bracelet has smaller, rounded links which give a dressier look to the bracelet.
The Presidential Bracelet is the most distinctive bracelet in Rolex’s lineup, as it only exists in the higher end, all gold watch models such as the Day-Date.
TIPS:
Because Rolex uses serial numbers to distinguish the year of production, we can easily know the bracelet’s manufacture history by viewing the stamp on the back of the clasp.
A Rolex bracelet should never be worn loosely around the wrist, as this would cause more friction, which wears the links down, producing larger gaps between each link. Obviously, the lifespan of the bracelet would be compromised due to such premature stretching.
