Would a prez bracelet look odd or good on a tt dj?

Does anyone have a two-tone Datejust with an all-gold bracelet? Yes, I know the cost of the bracelet is as much as a used DJ and it would banish it to the frankenwatch category. I like the idea, but I think the SS case would look odd in the sea of gold, but maybe actually seeing one makes the reality better.

The cost of a President Bracelet is about $14,000 and way more than the value of a Datejust...

In any event, there are quite a few DJ's (perhaps not TT models though) with that combination as a Dealer used to be able to order that combo, and the Ladies President is always a DJ with a Pres bracelet..

IMHO, it would look extraordinarily poor.

Better to keep the metals matching, but that's just me.

Agreed. I would not prefer the look, which I would consider wiggetywack.

It wouldn't fit, the 18K and PT cases are different from Datejust cases. Specifically the case is flat (not rounded) between the lugs.

Are the newer 18K cases rounder between the lugs? Or are they still flat like the older ones. I'm too lazy to do my research
