Thoughts on Tudor GMT on Jubilee?

Found these pics online and kinda fell in love. What’re your opinions? Does the Tudor GMT work on a straight bar end link Jubilee?

Bracelet / photos from WatchGecko of their “Solid Warrington” bracelet

It would looks good if it had proper endlinks without gaps to the case.

The gap between the case and the strap doesnt look good.

It works

So I purchased the Watchgecko Classic Warrington Stainless Steel Watch Strap from there website. The straight end links are much smaller at the ends to fit under the custom end links. They also have all brushed jubilee bracelet if you don't want the polished look because the custom end links are not polished. It works fits perfectly and I'm satisfied.

Custom end links are from eBay and the bracelet is from watchgecko Classic Warrington Stainless Steel Watch Strap straight end its the smaller jubilee bracelet they offer.

Yep, needs end links imo. Even with leather/nato the black bays show a lot of case from the side which I am personally not a fan of.

With end links, it would look great.

Don’t like jubilee on BLRO. So, equally bad idea on BB GMT.

I think looks awesome! Would be better w end links but infinitely better than the faux rivet garbage bracelet that is offered by Tudor.

Not to totally derail this thread but curious why you feel that all Tudor bracelets are "aesthetically garbage?"

Very happy with mine. Looks good and built like a tank. Wears very comfortably for me as well. Are you talking about the rivets specifically? If so I find that they virtually disappear on the wrist. I also think they don't look half bad. The look of the rivets in close-up photos is way different than the wearing experience IMO.

Have you tried one on? I had the same concerns about the rivets until I actually wore the bracelet. I bought mine on leather and then added the OEM bracelet after. I'm telling you the photos you see in the internet greatly exaggerate the appearance and size of the rivets. On the wrist you either don't see them at all or barely notice them. The bracelet itself is really comfortable (for me) and robust. I've been really happy with it.

I hate straight end bracelets. Get some end links! This look has always bothered me on the Breitling SOH as well.

I like the (Rolex-made) Jub' much better than the stock version.

It’s not the lack of endlinks that’s the problem with this....it’s the thickness of the case.

It's both. The straight bar end links are a big fat from E, and I believe you are correct the case thickness seemingly won't work so hot with the jubilee.
