GMT 126720VTNR Oyster or Jubilee
For the Pepsi, every poll that gets created the jubilee always comes out the clear winner but for the lefty / destro / sprite, what’s people’s choice of bracelet for this piece?

Neither because the watch itself is hideous

Hard to say. Each time I see each version I say: this is the right one. For me easy to choose, the first to come

I feel that with all that’s going on with the busyness of the new crown position, new date position, and new bezel color, the cleaner oyster bracelet helps ‘center’ it all

Oyster for me. The watch has a lot going on, so, IMHO, the jubilee distracts from what makes the VTNR special.

Regardless of which you choose, a watch like this cannot be properly appreciated unless the bracelet is secured upside down, such that the easy link is on your thumb side, and the clasp opens towards your thumb rather than away from it.

I am left handed, and the VTNR had never grown on me at all.
Until a few nights ago I was out and a gentleman asked, are you left handed? I noticed your submariner on your right hand. I said, yes I am. He replied with me too, beautiful watch. And then - I began the discuss the VTNR with him. Now I kind of want one. If it can be had at msrp. Not gray prices. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I requested Jubilee but have Oyster which I should pick up next Saturday, I asked if I can buy a Jubilee simply to have the choice of either ..

Oyster for looks, Jubilee for wearing comfort, ergo Jubilee.

Oyster as I am convinced the lugs don’t look as big on the oyster vs the jubilee.

On pictures and comfort Jubilee is the winner. GMTs look more balance with the oyster and to me looks a hell of a lot cleaner with the polished center links.

Mine is on jubilee and I think it looks great. It also looks great on oyster though. You can’t go wrong.

Jubilee is just so much more comfortable.

I'm in the market for a Sprite as well as a left handed watch wearer. I prefer getting one on the jubilee mostly because I already have a BLNR on oyster and want to have as much of a difference in appearance as possible.
If it wasn't for this, I'd go for the Sprite on oyster.

I did Oyster as the watch feels more fundamental and utilitarian to me. Didn’t feel correct with the Jubilee, did that for my Pepsi.

Not a fan of that watch but I think for those colors the jubilee works best. For the Pepsi I like the oyster, for the BLNR I like the jubilee. Very color dependant for some odd reason.

With this one you pick what is offered. I have oyster but purchased a jubilee. Swapped to jubilee as I own a few on oyster already.

Oyster on the VTNR, but I'd really like it fully brushed out so am seeking a second bracelet.
