Most comfortable bracelet

What do you all think is the most comfortable bracelet?

My vote is the Jubilee.

Jubilee is the most comfortable, but I favor the president for its heft.

Oyster + Glidelock. It has the best balance for me. I prefer longer clasps...not sure why.

Jubilee for me and mostly because it has the easy link.

I’d vote President but with no adjustability other than adding or removing links it’s just not for me. YMMV.

I would also say president but you Have a valid point. When I used to be able to wear 36s jubilee was always the most comfortable ever. I haven’t yet owned a modern jubilee bracelet I didn’t even realise there was an easy link on it that must be great. Just the stretch that kills it for me I can’t stop looking at it and worrying about it it causes me too much stress

I too would go with the jubilee, but the Oyster on my 116500 is supremely comfortable as well. Rolex makes some very comfortable watches.

I think you'd be impressed. Solid links make a big difference on the new jubilee bracelets

Honestly I’m a huge fan of my 5 digit oyster. I’ve owned many throughout the years, it’s the only one to remain.
