The Oyster looks a little fancier to me. Both look right on a sport watch like the GMT so it’s all a matter of personal taste. My BLRO has the original Oyster, and while I do like the Jubilee it’s not worth the $$ to change.

Speechless. Love your watches and pictures sir. May I ask what is reference number of your jubilee on Daytona C?

Also, does it fix on Dj116234 and blnr ?

Thanks.

Oyster. Jubilee on Professional Series references just don’t do it for me. The Oyster bracelet just makes the watch look more substantial.

Jubilee!
I thought Oysters was purposely made for GMT and other bigger Rolex.

Where did you purchased yours?
Selling at DavidSW is at US$2,575 !

cheers

Thank you for the kind words!

My bracelet reference is 63600 and yes I does fit the 116234 as well as the BLNR. To get the right fit for every watch sometimes you need to use different spring bars.

I have both. I get bored easily and it's nice to change it up.
I've got 4 completely different looking watches when I add the Pepsi bezel into the mix.

Both are great, but something about the pop of the jubilee makes me weak in the knees!

The pepsi is best paired with a jubilee!

The jubilee looks great on pre ceramic watches, maxi case and either would still look OK

The Jubilee looks nicer and feels nicer too. I like both but the jubilee is just better.

GMT 16710 Jubilee vs Oyster


My 16710 BLRO with the original Oyster bracelet. Looks more rugged than the Jubilee, and as a tool watch guy this look suits me best.

To this point it breaks down like this:

Oyster: 27
Jubilee: 18

Several folks said both and are not figured in the tally.
