Finally oyster bracelet ordered for Pepsi

After a nice exchange with Rolex via email. I can finally get an oyster for my pepsi without giving back my jubilee.

Went into my AD at lunch time and showed the email exchange. Now I’m £1,600 lighter oh well. Very pleased hated the jubilee love the oyster.

I am glad that this is an option, as I also prefer the oyster. But now, you get two different looks at any time you choose!

On this reference I much prefer the jubilee, but to each their own

I prefer Jubilee too for this ref, I have others on Oysters, the Jubilee makes this one a little different in my collection. That said, I'd like an Oyster for it for a change now and again.

. same here.

I have too many Oysters and the jubilee makes it feel just a tough job more special (to me). It also wears much more comfortably IMO

Good result. I'm going the other way and keeping both. I'm waiting for St James Square to receive the Jubilee bracelet.

Glad you are able to get an oyster. I got mine last month and like it better than the jubilee.

Congratulations that you were able to get through to the AD but annoying you needed to go through the email exchange before you could order what you wanted.

I was wondering if it would be possible to get a copy of the exchange (assuming no personal info) so I can do the same?

I have spoken to a few UK ADs and the replies are no or not possible - one even went as far as to say the bracelets are not interchangeable..!
Seems like the email does the trick..

Feel free to DM if you’re not comfortable posting screenshot here..

Good move, definitely oyster over jubilee as far as I am concerned.
