Yes an SS oyster would be the ticket.

I think it would look great on an Oyster Flex. If that's possible to fit though I'm not sure

My first choice would be a brushed - non polished center link oyster. Second choice would be a brown colored vintage leather strap.

Two similar threads today. I don’t subscribe to SS on straps, other than Nato. Its sort of reminds me of the supercar running around on the space saver emergency spare tire.

Frankly no controversy here imho. Do what you like; it's your watch!!! No one else matters in the decision making.

Simply gorgeous! But I gotta ask. Of the three bracelet types, which do you prefer or lean too the most? I really like the look the jubilee brings to the BLRO, but that all brushed bracelet really levels the BLRO for me of the three photo's you posted.
I'm still waiting for my BLRO to arrive, but after seeing your pictures, I think I'm going to have to source an all brushed bracelet to go with it for a change up! |

Yeah, I'd say pretty damn close to perfect. No wiggle, and little to no gap exactly as it looks on a submariner! It's an awesome combo.
