Both are very comfortable, but if we are talking about a DD, to me that says president. IMHO

I have a DD with the pres bracelet. The way the end-links are integrated with the bracelet is more graceful on the oyster. The oyster will be more of a scratch magnet since the pres links, being a tighter radius, present a shorter tangent for scratching.

If it existed, I'd be interested in a late model DD with brushed lugs and an all-brushed oyster, in stainless steel please.

In any case, to my eye, my WG/rhodium&stick-dial looks best on an inexpensive aftermarket black strap.
