If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Good advice, thanks!!

Nairn, Each used jubilee has a wee bit of stretch, never seen one without. It'll take a decade before it fall's off. Don't bother it's comfortable.

Thanks. It's a bit stretchy but not awful - I suppose It feels so delicate compared to my recent sports models.

Well here we are 6 weeks on and I'm loving my 24 year old datejust!!
It is ultra light, extremely comfortable and is such a good size that it is great with a shirt yet suits jeans and t shirt well enough. The fluted bezel sparkles away and it just looks great. It is just back from rolex and gaining 3-4 seconds a day so I can live with that.

I've found myself wearing it almost daily now with my Tag Heuer being worn on the odd day. It's funny how heavy the tag feels in comparison, when I had my omega PO 45.5 the tag felt light.

Overall delighted with this watch - yes it's not the BLNR that if really love but it has charm, is ultra comfortable and is definitely a keeper for me.

Very nice - especially the dial.

You'll need to give your sporran a fair shake for a new braclet Jock.
