My new oyster bracelet on my 1675

Just replaced my jubilee bracelet on my 1675 1.88 with a new to me but used 7836 oyster bracelet and 580 end links. Wow what a great look to me. Love it!
Aloha my friends,
Tom

It definitely looks sportier! But on the contrary, I love jubs on 1675s, I dunno why. Hahaha

Looks great! I prefer the oyster over the jubillee too on your GMT.
