BLNR With A Different Look
I picked up a jubilee for my BLNR.I have been on the hunt for a while until Springer put one up for sale. I have to say it really changes things up the weight and look like a new watch. Really like it!

I like the look a lot. I wish Rolex would offer the Jubilee bracelet again on the GMT.

Very interesting combo! The gap between the lug length and the jubilee end link is a little disconcerting to me, though. Still, an amazing look.

Love the jubilee on a GMT, and I'm sure it's in immaculate condition coming from Springer.

I'd put on the newer style jubilee. I think it's more fitting for the BLNR.

I'd lean to the Super Jubilee for the BLNR...I have the old clasp-style on my 16710.
Hmm. Is the unscrewed crown also part of the "new" look?

I did it, but couldn't get into the lightened feeling of the jubilee with robust feeling head. Felt too too heavy imo. Looks great though! Enjoy

Smart getting the Jubilee over the Super Jubilee with the hidden clasp. You have a lttle more adjustability. As has been suggested, send it to MY for some tightening up.

The jubilee bracelet good alternative to the oyster bracelet with PCL's, given that jubilees don't show scratches as much. I feel that Rolex should offer a jubilee alternative for their Daytona and GMT lines. It would be a great way to increase sales without changing anything too much IMO.

Holy crap Batman!
The lug/bracelet gap might take a while to get used to, but when your head's there -wow! |

IMHO the BLNR should be on a Super Jubilee, if anything.
