My wife switched from the two-tone Jubilee to the Oyster-look a couple years ago. I think I like the Oyster-look better myself.

I like both. My DJ has a jubilee which is very comfortable & you don't even know you're wearing a watch & my sub has a oyster which has a little weight & makes it known that you have something on your wrist. Both work for me.

I have the ladies' Yachtmaster which of course has the oyster. I was never much a fan of the jubilee, but I think it goes best with the fluted bezel. I think the oyster goes better with the smooth bezel. A friend of mine has a ladies' TT DJ with a smoot bezel and oyster bracelet.

Went with Oyster:)

Thanks for all your replies, I learned a lot while reading them. This is the watch I bought and it fits really well I think. It's a new 31mm 18k/SS DJ Oyster bracelet with black dial and luminate markers.......I love it!

I like to think I'm a guys guy and I wear a Jubilee.


So, I would have to imagine women are wearing an oyster.

I am very much in the same dilemma. Received DJ 36mm with black MOP dial with fluted bezel and Jubilee as a gift. Am wondering if I should get it change to oyster for daily wear...
