EverRose Love...
Hello there...
My new years resolution? Get another watch(s) I always wanted to get the everose datejust. Infact it was supposed to be my first rolex until I saw the gmt. However I wish to get the datejust as soon as i figure out the funds for it and or if a good deal comes by, but I never knew my dilemma would be the bracelet! Please help me Oyster or Jubilee!!! They both look amazing!!! |

Jubilee, definately! The fine workmanship is par excellence! Every little turn is perfectly polished and extremely comfortable.
Plus all that shiney gold surface on the Oyster will be a scratch magnet. |

Oyster - one of the finest metal bracelets made even more stunning with the addition of rose gold in my humble opinion.

Oyster = More solid feel and goes well with the dome bezel, but is a scratch magnet which everyone admits.
Jubilee = More comfortable , shiny less scratches. Only one question does the Jubilee feel as substantial like the oyster?? |

Depends on the DJ, but my preference is the Jubilee style and comfort.
Gotta love that Everose !!!! Yellow gold 'pales' by comparison. and YES, the solid links does make the Jubilee feel as substantial as the Oyster. And the 'hidden' clasp design is stunning !!!! |

Looks like theres a tie in the opinions! Still not sure guess will have to try them both. Im sure though both look amazing! Any idea if theres a price difference between the oyster or the jubilee??? IMO feel both should be the same price.

They both look great and as you can see everyone has a personal preferance. Me, a solid link jubilee.
Try one of each on and see what floats your boat! Just before Christmas I think a a new Jubilee bracelet only was £1300+ and an Oyster was £1200+ Best of luck whichever you choose and look forward to some pics. Si |

Ordering the Jubilee cost me an extra $100 USD over the basic Oyster bracelet. |

Domed bezel! I love 'em. Fluted bezels just don't do it for me.
