That’s a pre 2000’s model Rolex 16710 GMT II wearing an aftermarket ceramic BLRO insert.

Interesting. Never heard of that. Very versatile

Tough one… you could always buy a bracelet and have both to change it up. I thought I preferred the Oyster, but this happened earlier this week… really really enjoying this one.

My own has Jubilee and I would like an Oyster for it to swap over now and again.
I think the BLRO is a special Rolex and I think it's more special on Jubilee, but I would enjoy the Oyster.

The Jubilee I find I am always cleaning/polishing between the little links, espcecially if I've had it in the pool/shower, but it really sparkles once done. The

The Oyster shows scratches but it gives the watch more weight. It doesn't need all this cleaning between the links I do with the Jubilee (I have watches on Oyster).

I know if I had the choice buying new I'd probably have it on on Oyster, it's more like a sport watch - but I'd also want a Jubilee for the wowfactor.

Again, the BLRO is a special Rolex, but I think it's more special on Jubilee.

My current daily watch when it was new, fresh out the box..

Jubilee for me and it's not even close.

Jubilee on the BLRO. Oyster on the BLNR.

I have it on jubilee and went to order the oyster so I could have both. My AD had another BLRO on the oyster band. I tired it on and it really lacked the presence the jubilee has.

The exact inverse applies to the Batman.

It's all personal preference.

BLRO jubilee

I will take either as long as my AD calls me for one, I would be happy.

Thought I would prefer the oyster but got the call for the jubilee. Will probably pick up the oyster for a change of pace. Jubilee is great though. Much more comfortable than the oyster and you can get a better fit due to the links being smaller.

2018 Complete set on Jubilee vs 2022 Complete set on Oyster, 2018 is $1000 cheaper than the 2022.

Get the 2018 and put the $1000 towards a genuine oyster bracelet so you have both

Jubilee all day long

AD called me for oyster. Preferred jubilee since the rest of my SS are on oyster.

Took it and ordered jubilee, which its been on for less than a week.

Jubilee all day for the BLRO!

Contrary to most posts, but I just recently added the Oyster to my late-2018 BLRO, and I actually like it much, much more.

The BLRO on jubilee is very flashy (to me). The mix of highly polished surfaces, ceramic, and jubilee create what to me, looks like a disco ball on the wrist. The oyster (PCLs notwithstanding) really tones down the look, without sacrificing comfort. I don't see myself going back to the jubilee any time soon, especially since it looks so much more flashy on the jubilee.

Oyster all the way

The Jubilee is extremely comfortable and doesn't show scratches...

[Geckobros]

I prefer the Jubilee. However, I ordered the Oyster, so I can switch it up. I will form a better opinion after it arrives.

[BNA/LION]

Jubilee is beautiful, IMHO.

[Michael1968]

Jubilee all day everyday

[Santiago32]

Buy the oyster and put the savings toward a jubilee bracelet.

If what everyone is saying is true, and we're heading into a recession. Wait till mid 2023 and you'll pick it up at an AD with no wait.
I've already seen sea dweller, skydweller, datejust 36 and 41, daydate, no date sub. All for sale on displays during my travels in the past 2 months in Europe.

Secondary market prices are dropping every day. Even flippers are complaining here that dealers aren't buying.

So in this case patience will be a virtue. 8 more months snd u have a new watch at list. Or if the market is reallyyyyy bad maybe at discount.

Was a guy here like 2 weeks ago, wrote he saw blro for sale in display in Italy. So yeah ... times a changing.

Worst case market stays same and u can still buy grey.

That's what I would do.
