Oyster Bracelet

Does a stainless steel oyster bracelet look good on a steel/gold bezel oyster datejust? I've only seen gold and steel bracelets on steel/gold rolexes.

There's too many fakes with oyster bracelet combinations. I'd say leave that to Frankenstein. The fakes all sporting Oyster wannabes is probably down to there being an abudance of Oyster bracelet copies but not many fake presidents etc.

Maybe we can call it The Barcelona DateJust, the one you can wear safe at La Rambla.

I'm sure it would look fine. Some wanna be TRF studs might assume it's fake. But, who cares what they think. If you like the look, go for it.

Yes.... It is a killer look and perhaps a longer lasting combination..

I don't currently have one on a Datejust....

... But here it is on a TT GMT...
