Want a Rolex, not a bracelet guy….

[taybo20]

The only watches I like in bracelet are my Rolex watches. All the others have gone to leather or rubber.

Hoa about this? I have no problem with the original jubilee, but I like this for a change of pace.

Of the current line up the explorer II seems the most strap friendly. I’d love the oppty to “try on” a sports oyster at an AD, just doesn’t seem like an option in today’s availability market

Most ADs today feature exhibition models. You should be able to try some GMTs or Subs on either oyster or Jubilee. Everybody is free to do whatever they want, but I think bracelets are a significant part of Rolex appeal and identity.

whatever you do, don't put an aftermarket rubber strap on a Rolex.

Thank you - I am just learning about this. When I visited an AD last year it was all empty cases. Look forward to trying a few on.

Are you looking at PM pieces? The OF straps on the YM's and Daytonas are lovely. Haven't seen a SKD on OF, but I assume it is just as good.

I have the RG YM40 on OF, and I tell you I just can't take it off my wrist. Super comfortable, and puts a smile on my face every time I look at it.
