Japanese DJ? Grand Seiko SBGX263 on jubilee
I've seen a number of posts online talking about the 37mm Grand seiko SBGX series, and the desire for a compatible aftermarket bracelet. Uploading this image to confirm that the Uncle Seiko SNXS 19mm jubilee is compatible! I find it's really increased the bling factor and makes it feel like a different watch.

Wow this is awesome. I'm considering an SBGX259 or SBGX295.

I think these are pretty hard to beat for your typical versatile GADA watch. I've tried a few - have owned a Monta Noble, a BB36 (previous gen blue dial), and a Tudor prince date day, before I finally settled on the GS pictured. On the OEM, it has almost identical feel as the BB36. On the jubilee it feels more like the prince date day. Wears like a 36, has that luxury heft to it despite the quartz movement (not just any quartz to be fair). Can highly recommend. Would personally go with the 259 as it will come with the OEM bracelet. You can always throw it on leather if you want, or pick up the jubilee like I did.
Just saved your post. Might come in handy at some point, thanks for sharing! ✌🏼For the moment I’m quite happy with the stock oyster style bracelet though.
This is why I hate WC! Been debating 🤔one my last watch, a DJ, a Seamaster Aqua Terra, and a GS. I was really settled on the DJ for the past month, and now this! Damn you WC! 😊
Very cool watch, and yeah very much a GS Datejust btw.

No problem. I was looking around for a little while for an alternative. Also have a delugs ostrich leather strap for it that it looks good on.

Haha.
1 - "Last watch" - yeah right?
2 - Why don't you join the dark side and do what I did? Itches the DJ and GS itch, while having much more accuracy 😉 You might be able to buy this AND the Aqua Terra! Food for thought...
Does this require any modification to the supplied parts, ie end links

Nope. Just the jubilee from Uncle Seiko. No modification.
