I have a gen and a rep jubilee

[If you see Kay]

And I can't tell the difference between the two. For the life of me, they look exactly the same. The end links have different numbers on them but their shape and fitment is the same. The code references on the clasp are also different, but the individual jubilee links are indiscernible.

The clasp closes better on the gen. I can see the biggest difference is in the clasp and the folding part of the clasp, that's it. The links and end links are identical.

Can anyone tell them apart???

Many people can

The gen 1675 vs rep 1675 bracelets were very different in looks and fit. For some reason, gen bracelets never seem to fit reps as well as the rep bracelet. YMMV. 1675 and 16610 bracelets I've had in gen have been noticeably better quality. Same with 19mm Oysterdate bracelet. I do like the rep rivet bracelet though. Which one are you looking at? Maybe a nice find

If it weren't for the clasp and folding parts, I could not tell the difference. I'll take pics to show you as soon as I remember to bring the watch home. I always forget to leave it on my desk at work. Not good.

I own both gen and rep Jubilee as well; the rep one came from RolexAddict, I'm unclear on his original source, Yuki maybe.

Biggest functional tell for me are the small screws for length adjustment. The rep ones are softer, harder to screw, thereby easy to damage, and not all of them do fully sink in the bracelet when screwing them in.

Otherwise, new rep Jubilee bracelets have obviously less stretch than gen used ones, so the reps are better in that aspect. As a third alternative, I've ordered a sterile aftermarket Jubilee now and will see how this compares to gen and rep. Stay tuned.
