It looks good! For sport watches, Oyster bracelets hands down!

I vote for the Jubilee, I prefer the pepsi on the jubilee much better. Thanks for sharing.

Looks nice, but oddly enough I think I actually prefer the jubilee. Would not have thought so.

That is enough to make me want that watch. With the jubilee I have no desire for it.

I'm in the oyster camp, but I've never liked the looks of the jubilee quite as much, so it may just be a personal bias. I always get the vague notion that the jubilee is more vintage/dated looking while the oyster seems more modern. But, they both look good in different ways; you're not going to go wrong with either one.

Agreed the Pepsi looks better on Jubilee. I saw a Batgirl in the wild the other day and it didn't look as nice as the Pepsi.

I prefer the Oyster but would be nice to have the Jubilee for a nice change up, esp if you have a couple of oysters already.

Oyster (brushed) looks the best to me.

I recently went down the same route after purchasing a 72600 bracelet for my Pepsi. Fitted fine with the BLRO spring bars but a week later I switched it straight back to the jubilee.

Why are people paying premiums for these bracelets? They’re easily acquirable from walking into an AD! 🤦🏻*♂️

Doesn’t work for me either. Prefer the Pepsi C on the jubilee. Otherwise just another Rolex GMT on an oyster. Not as special

There was a time I wouldn’t consider buying a watch on the jubilee. I started to warm up to it, bought a BLRO, and wouldn’t even consider trying an oyster on it.

Like many I was convinced I didn't like the Jubilee. Now I cant even imaging not wearing one. You won't find a BLRO owner who isn't happy with the Jubilee, and this thread is proof of that. Haters gonna hate, BLRO owners are gonna Jubilee. |

It doubles as WG pretender on the oyster. It also looks good. Both bracelets suit the watch so its more down to personal preference.

It’s funny, after seeing the jubilee on the BLRO there’s something about the oyster that just seems off to me.

Finally put the Oyster bracelet on the Pepsi

Was thinking the same. I have 2x oyster and 2x jubilee watches and I think the Pepsi wants the jubilee. Someone should brush the center links on the jubilee for fun.

Would you mind educating me on exactly which bracelet reference comes with the respective watches that fit on the 126710BLRO?
- 116710LN - has PCLs, but no glidelock? - 114060LN - brushed, with glidelock? Do they both fit perfectly on the 126710BLRO, as in, do I need to worry about any sort of incremental wear on the watch? Since you guys are already experimenting with this stuff, does an oysterflex fit on the 126710BLRO as well? If it does, and I wish to buy one, what clasp would I have to look for to fit onto the oysterflex? Thanks! |
