It's an addiction, Submariner08; simple as that, IMHO!

Great collection, J.

Could you tell us a little about the comfort of the new jubilee on the left. Interesting combo with smooth bezel.

Thanks Greg

Thanks, Mike and Greg.

The Jubilee bracelet is the newer model with the concealed clasp. Personally speaking, I think the bracelet is an amazing piece of technology.

They have a much more solid construction to them and are a little less prone to stretching, IMO, however, they do need to fit snugly on the wrist. As far as comfort is concerned, I think it is extremely comfortable. However, that is a personal opinion.

I also prefer the polished bezel on an SS DJ, as opposed to a fluted one.

The following picture shows the concealed clasp of my DJ: -
