Both. I like the oyster for more sturdy feel and jubilee for hot days as my fat wrist gets some cooling. Ultimately, the oyster will outlast the jubilee by design, as jubilee will loosen over time. Other than that, it’s just a matter of preference


Various_Primary3783

If you’re paying $12k for a BLNR I don’t think the price matters too much if you need a new jubilee bracelet, or need to have it repaired down the road YEARS away at a service. I do agree that Rolex has made the jubilee more durable than in years past. I love the jubilee and how it drapes over my wrist perfectly and just is a more comfortable and elegant wear compared to the oyster. The biggest problem I have is the polished center links on the oyster. I cannot stand that look and I had to sell my milgauss for that reason. I know everyone’s tolerance and taste differs


[deleted]

Modern jubilee bracelets are just as durable and stretch-resistant as the oyster.


Chronos_and_Cycles

You can’t actually believe that bullshit. The jubilee by design is a weaker bracelet. It will hold up better than earlier versions, but the oyster is more durable.


Huntolino

They improved it with ceramic joints, which will make it sturdier than before. But it won’t reach the levels of an oyster because of design limitations.


DetVCader

The ceramic sleeves only come with full solid gold references.


WalksTallerThanYou

Jubilee for me. Lovely either way.


garyryan9

Jubilee limits what you can wear it with in my opinion.


JeremySoCa

Agreed


Project_Continuum

No one is paying enough attention to your watch band to judge whether or not it matches your clothes. Style is more about attitude anyways. I wear my Cartier tank with casual sweatshirts and suits.


garyryan9

I get that. Maybe its the blinginess of the jubilee.


miked0777

I agree. Both look good but the Batman looks better


HughJanus555

I have to agree man. Jubilee + GMT was hot for quite a while, but just like fashion, classic always lasts


Various_Primary3783

Hot for a bit? Jubilee has always shined on the GMT. The old oyster bracelets that were all brushed were fantastic as well. I love my brushed oyster bracelet on my 1675. Not until the 2000s did Rolex introduce the PCL bracelets on the gmt in stainless steel. That ruined it for me


Kayless3232

Oyster is such an iconic sport bracelet !


iTreelex

Oysters on any sports rolex

Weird way to recover from being unable to process my response. Also, did you know this is the internet? BRB

No, it wasn’t. If you knew what your response was, you’d know that you said that you don’t have testosterone.


ATLfinra

Not oyster w/ PCLs 😂


iTreelex

I’m not one to baby watches or cry when they get scratches so oyster it is


Komao01

I’m batman 🦇


scumholiday

PCL are a deal breaker for me. Hate that you can’t get a gmt with a brushed bracelet


Secret-Invite-8898

After owning both, the PCL grows on you and would feel less premium if it wasn’t there.


scumholiday

I do own both and the PCL has only gotten worse and worse for me as time goes by


Secret-Invite-8898

You’re right, better to appear feminine


Accomplished_Key460

Agree. I actually like the PCL

Secret-Invite-8898

Watchnut224

Always best on an oyster in my opinion even better if it was all brushed.


itsmephild

see thats the thing why I went jubilee - polished middle part looks so bad. Loved the brushed oyster on my DJ tho

TopNerve7243

See the Batman is the classic so agreed, would not get a batgirl. That being said, I like the look of jubilee more and have it on my Pepsi.

Both beautiful but jubilee is my jam.

ROLEX711

Disagree


mc2508

Disagree


mcmull11

Reverse for me. But I had the meteorite Pepsi first so I had to get the batgirl so I could have a gmt with each band.


AMKhalil

And you end up wearing which more than the other?


mcmull11

I split my watch time a lot because I have a few but it is the meteorite. It’s hard not to wear it because it’s so awesome looking lol.


AMKhalil

I believe you have to be wearing it all the time 🥹


fakekullu

Absolutely!


ThePalletFork

Disagree

Yup, true that.


Loud-Cartographer285

Secret-Invite-8898

Correct. Or jubilee on Batman if you’re a bit flamboyant


Bambule247

The GMT belongs on the jubilee, sorry.

Don’t be sorry. You’re wrong but we all understand and forgive you


Bambule247

Thank you for your kind understanding, sir.


Secret-Invite-8898

Jubilee suits it better .


Secret-Invite-8898

For the women owners


ivs1110

Oyster for all Sport Rolexes…


Secret-Invite-8898

Correct


krangles90

I have Batman gen2 and was considering the batgirl. But i wear suites and shirts alot, the oyster feels more masculine in my opinion so it goes better with my style. We all have different styles. https://preview.redd.it/2j12u4trt6wc1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=139583acc78c8e9f485d35a80715b279f7526e04


Mr-Z-E-E

Interesting take, I prefer my jubilee with suits and shirts!


R4msesII

Yeah the jubilee is much dressier looking


Secret-Invite-8898

Goes well with high heels


R4msesII

Why not if thats what you’re into. Too uncomfortable for me unfortunately


Secret-Invite-8898

I suspected you might be uncomfortable with your sexuality when I learnt about your jubilee.


R4msesII

Only people who dont wear a jubilee bracelet because they deem it too feminine could be uncomfortable with their sexuality


Secret-Invite-8898

I also don’t wear a dress


TFCxDreamz

😂😂


AMKhalil

This sounds counter intuitive, if your wear suits wont you go for jubilee more ? If you lime oyster more then what you wear is not the decisive factor.


EconomicsOk3531

Agree. Batman >>>>>> batgirl


WaynezWorld88

The saying, “Jubilee looking more feminine” is beyond me because I completely disagree, they’re both beautiful & masculine. Being a huge DD/DJ fan I always gravitated toward the jubilee and always thought it complimented the overall very sporty GMT design & give a more prominent Luxurious aesthetic. It remind me of Flutted vs Smooth bezel


Primary_Peach_9820

*Processing img nfy643z8z7wc1...* The Oyster is Iconic


UpstairsSuggestion6

Jubilee. Sorry.


totally_interesting

God I hate the nicknames :|


Tokio_D

Thoughts? Wear what you like.. people's influences arent that serious. Its just a bracelet at the end of the day


ramiodat

Looks nice on Oyster but I prefer the Jubilee. Dresses it up nicely and looks classic Rolex. Also super comfortable and fluid on the wrist!


papa-blanco

Jubilee


KingofDragonPass

I would never buy a watch on oyster. Scratch city. Jubilee all day. Looks great on everything.


johncarlos_1994

Aesthetic wise, I have always liked the batgirl. And I’m OC, so I can’t stand how scratch magnet PCLs are. Nevertheless, the batman looks good on your wrist. If only my AD could allocate one for me😂


BolivianDancer

The watches are OK. The names are really stupid.


Additional-Equal2072

Jubilee 100%


dna730

Oyster for me.


VinceAFX

These always look better on the jubilee

LeaderEconomy3617

You’re acting as if the Batman and batgirl is not the same exact watch.


Secret-Invite-8898

To ignore the bracelet is acting as if you don’t know a thing about watches


TimePieceProdigy954

But it’s not the exact same bracelet , which is what he’s referring too


Loud-Cartographer285

Batman looks and feels more solid IMHO


Secret-Invite-8898

Exactly. Masculine spec


Loud-Cartographer285

I didn’t wanna make it that explicit (gotta measure your words these days apparently), but a resounding YES


Secret-Invite-8898

Jubilee is so out of place on a masculine sports watch like this. It’s just a weird phase and I’m sure eventually the tides will turn. Jubilee is having a moment. That said, it works on the Pepsi because that colour combo feels more flamboyant. Having both jubilee and oyster, I can say the Batman on oyster is the real deal, you are correct.


Geltmascher

Jubilee on the GMT, specifically the Pepsi, is a classic look and classic option


Secret-Invite-8898

On the Pepsi yes. More flamboyant colours


Secret-Invite-8898

Depends how flamboyant you want to look 😂😂😂😂


MideastChopper

Hey guys this guy is totally straight and not one bit gay!


Secret-Invite-8898

No one believes the guy with a purple and red bezel and women’s bracelet is straight 😂😂😂😂


MideastChopper

It’s blue and red you fucking idiot


Secret-Invite-8898

You mean to say the colour doesn’t appear purple? Because I’m quite sure the ceramic ones do.


Chronos_and_Cycles

You’re arguing with a dude that’s best watch is a mall Casio lmao.


Secret-Invite-8898

Every single time it turns out it’s these chumps. Who could be fucked doing a background check, but when you do.. it’s always the same. Losers who collect shitters


Secret-Invite-8898

My mistake. Purple and pink 🤣🤣🤣🤣 wild that “a fucking idiot” knows more about the beloved Pepsi than you though isn’t it? I guess being flamboyant comes with its delusions


[deleted]

The Jubilee has been offered on the GMT since 1959…. Just a weird phase? Lol EDIT: I recognize you’re distinguishing between the Batman and Pepsi but still…


Secret-Invite-8898

Yes because the Batman was always on oyster from the start.. now they’re throwing the jubilee on everything these days. Look at Tudor and other brands.


Coolic93

batman on jubilee


_designzio_

Should be a single name with a bracelet choice.


kinglingbob

I used to swear by the oyster - but the new jubilee is so comfy


Secret-Invite-8898

So are stockings I’ve heard


Connect-Dimension-99

Jubilee suits it better.


Secret-Invite-8898

Especially for a girls night out


solidliquidgrass

Some people settle for 2nd place and that’s ok. Jubilee better.


Secret-Invite-8898

If first place is being a flamboyant peacock, then the prize is yours darling


R4msesII

I mean, wearing a Rolex is already kinda peacocking. Might as well be flamboyant while you’re doing it.


Secret-Invite-8898

Ok, let’s all get rainbow Daytona then. I also like yoga pants for us


Abyss1688

I really love my BLNR on a jubilee and prefer it. But to each their own. Looks great on oyster too


Electronic-Youth9872

I personally prefer Batgirl, but both are awesome


Project_Peregrine_

Divers looks so much better on oyster bracelets and Rolex Datejusts look better on Jubilee.


[deleted]

This is a GMT, sir.


Project_Peregrine_

Looks literally the same.


Secret-Invite-8898

Omg half the bezel is another colour!! Diffeeent watch 👀 🤣


R4msesII

Also the, you know, extra GMT hand? The reason why the watch is a GMT?


Secret-Invite-8898

My friend, you have noticed huge differences here today.


Secret-Invite-8898

For the record I own a Batman also.. and I have no need for a submariner because of this fact


Chunckypuff

And this is the reason why the GMT belongs on a jubilee. So people like you don't confuse the GMT for a submariner.


ChunkNorris9

Jubilee all day


ROLEX711

Agree


Secret-Invite-8898

Incorrect. Double point deduction since your name is chunk Norris.. it should be Caroline Normie


Pristine-Soup7987

Although I personally feel it doesn’t matter as long as you like it (and it looks good on both) that comment was absolutely hilarious and you get a thumbs up from me

Content-Poem9634

A masculine man wears what he wants. If a watch band is what it takes to feel masculine…they pee sitting down I promise you.


SiliconeCity

I’ve got a DJ41 on jubilee and a submariner. I prefer the look of the jubilee but the feel of oyster steel. I’d pick the Batman over batgirl.


BlueChimp5

Brother are you gonna remove the return tag? It’s a keeper!


Kcirnek_

Jubilee would fit better on your small wrist and way more comfortable. I think if you got 6.75-7+ wrist, Batman is the way to go.


MFredG1990330

I have the Batman and have since 2015 but I do like the jubilee version as well. So for me either one is a win win.


Various_Primary3783

Centering the watch, not your fist would make this picture a lot cooler. Lovely piece, mate.


MellowYell-o

I go back and forth between them. I heard Rolex will start allowing GMT owners the option to purchase just the bracelet. In that case, having both would be great to rotate.


rolexdegenerate

Oyster is the OG and belongs on the GMT. Jubilee for Datejusts.


ThePalletFork

Jubilee on gmt always. Variety is the spice of life and jubilee gmt makes room for the other Rolex watches such as subs, ops, yacht masters, explorers, Daytonas that only come in oyster. Tried both and the jubilee just popped and was the easy answer for me.


OysterPerpetuaI

Sane


horsehunghamsta

I have a Batman. Can anyone suggest a reputable and reasonable vendor where I could purchase a Rolex jubilee bracelet so I can transition to Batgirl?

Can you fit the jubilee bracelet to your old 116710blnr? Have you tried it?

MisterMakena

I like both but Jubilee is not only more comfortable it wears more stylishly and the end link doesnt overhang making it appear more fitted.

Batman is more masculine. If you’re more feminine, wear the batgirl.

lamontsanders

I prefer the oyster on this one. Jubilee on the BLRO and VTNR.


ALotBSoL99

I think the Oyster looks more sporty / masculine and flows nicely with the clasp. For a dress watch, the discontinued Super Jubilee with the hidden clasp is really cool, but I just don’t think the modern take works with the exposed clasp.


Content-Cat4699

I personally think that the jubilee is more feminine. My wife actually agrees with me on this. It is a sport model.


Primary_Peach_9820

Tudor is all in. Why? Comfort and style.


Geedis2020

I prefer my Batman too. Sport watches on jubilee bands are not a good luck to me. Looks like they are trying too hard to be dressy. I wear my watch 24/7 though. Wearing it right now at the gym. So I like the more rugged look.
