The 4 digit Daytona have 4 types of bracelets

Expandable Rivet - Ref 6635 (Endlink 71)
For: 6239, 6240 and 6241

Rivet - Ref 7205 (Endlink 71)
For: 6239, 6240, 6241, 6269 and 6270

Bended links - Ref 7835 (Endlink 271)
For: 6239, 6240, 6241, 6262, 6264, 6263 & 6265

Solid Links - Ref 78350 (Endlink 571)
For: 6263 and 6265

It depends on the period of the watch to determine which bracelet the watch was born with.

Daytonas were not born with a jubilee bracelet, although Rolex offered them as an option.

I understand that the bracelet is the same one used by the GMT, the GMT are 20mm however what made them adapt to the Daytona 19mm, were the endlinks, 49, 74, 574, etc.

But since they were never born with them, there is no reference in particular that it has to be.

This is incredibly useful, thank you. The 6239 was never made with a 78350 bracelet?

The 78350 is another generation. Like @m1994 100% correctly mentioned that the solid link Oyster bracelet was only made for the 6263 and the 6265 (the newer Daytonas with 727 Valjoux). The 6239 had only riveted or folded Oyster elements.
