Preference now in 2022 for a new 126710 Pepsi on Jubilee or Oyster PCL?

P.S. Brushed Oyster is NOT an option

Did you get told off by a Mod?

No other forum members. Guess they were right as I’ve been here long enough

Self appointed Mods.

Yeah. They're everywhere. Not important though.

101031-28 · 21 August 2022, 04:03 AM

Oyster.

Harry-57 · 21 August 2022, 04:05 AM

Either. Oyster for the look, Jubilee for the wearing comfort - not that the Oyster is actually uncomfortable, but the Jubilee is in another league.

ltmgeller · 21 August 2022, 04:19 AM

I love mine in jubilee. So comfortable.

Shaitan · 21 August 2022, 05:05 AM

Get it on oyster and buy a super jubilee (63600) to swap around form time to time - the hidden clasp makes it well rounded. This new jubilee bracelet with the huge clasp ruins the flow of the bracelet

Mine came on a jubilee and I recently purchased an oyster bracelet. I like the oyster better.

watchmework · 21 August 2022, 06:28 AM

Jubilee for me.

Stan Cooper · 21 August 2022, 06:59 AM

Oyster always.

Philadelphialawyer1 · 21 August 2022, 07:11 AM

Today, I tried on an exhibition BLNR on jubilee. Hard pass. Thank God I never went gray for this as this is what I thought I wanted. Oyster hands down

mario1971 · 21 August 2022, 07:18 AM

I happen to have both bracelets. That is the correct answer.

Yes, both wins!!

Daytonaman799 · 21 August 2022, 08:27 AM

The new jubilee is just sublime.

EagleBear · 21 August 2022, 10:37 AM

I agree with mario1971 and Harry-57 both look stunning but there is a slight comfort advantage over the oyster.
When on the wrist the jubilee stays put while the oyster due to it being a bit heavier needs to be worn a bit tighter on the wrist to have it stay put other than that I love them both.

Trailboss516 · 21 August 2022, 10:42 AM

Oyster for the classic look.
Also because I don't think the back of the jubilee bracelet matches the clasp that well. It looks off from my POV.

28mm · 21 August 2022, 10:52 AM

Take what you get and have both bracelets.

Me4u2night · 21 August 2022, 10:55 AM

Interesting most people prefer the jubilee. When this came out, there was so much backlash. Now that it’s available on both, people prefer the jubilee.

Agreed. What I also find interesting is that the general preference for the BLNR (“Batman”) is for it to be on oyster. Putting ‘comfort’ aside, what is it about the Pepsi bezel that makes the jubilee the favorite, but that does not apply similarly to the BLNR?

I liked the “cosmopolitan” description of the Pepsi by an earlier poster, but that could also apply to the BLNR, imho.

p.s. FWIW my Pepsi came on jubilee, but I switched it to oyster. Still, I like the option of both.

I can't speak for the BLNR but comfort cannot be overstated. I wanted the BLRO on Oyster and was glad to get it with that bracelet. Six months later I bought my first Rolex on Jubilee. It took a couple of hours to make my mind up on swapping the Pepsi bracelet out. The Jubilee is also a more accurate homage to the 6542.

True, and I do like the connection of the jubilee to the 6542.
Admittedly, while I switched to oyster initially, I am eager to switch it back to the original again. Not that oyster is uncomfortable, but the jubilee does make for an easier wear.

Actually that is not true according to Reddit Rolex Subreddit. There was just a poll a couple of weeks ago and the jubilee Batman won 60% to 40% oyster
