Please HELP?
Hi Everyone,
I have now finalized my decision on buying my wife (40yo) a DJ with Mother of Pearl with diamonds. The question is Oyster ss or ss Jubilee? I keep going round and round. any ideas? Thanks |

Both those watches look great..
My wife has two Rolex, both on Jubilees because they do not show the scratches nearly as much as the oyster bracelet does.

Jubilee is much more comfortable, however an oyster bracelet looks nice as well!

For a lady I would go with the jubilee because is has smaller increments that you can adjust it. This allows it to fit a little better for smaller wrists. Just a thought. I am sure she will love whatever you pick!

Jubilee! Especially if you are planning on getting the gold bezel, which looks much better with the jubilee bracelet compared to the oyster.

I agree w/most. Jubilee looks better on a DJ (men's or womens')than an Oyster. An Oyster looks better on a sport watch than a dress watch IMHO.

Jubilee.... Lends more of a "Jewelry" look to a watch that I think women find more appealing, Shows less wear also.

I bough my wife used TT DJ with mother of pearl and diamond marker with Oyster. She decided replacing it with Jubilee and add after market diamond bezel. And now she is very happy with it.

The new Jubilee with the hidden clasp is outstanding. IMHO
