I am planning to buy new datejust but its really difficult to decide do i take oyster or jubilee bracelet

This will be my only watch and daily beater.

Here is pictures of model whit both bracelets... What you think which one to choose ?

sickened1 · 14 February 2016, 04:37 AM

Jubilee for me. It looks more dressed up and less sporty.

polk1 · 14 February 2016, 04:40 AM

Really depends whether you want an all round watch or dress up watch. I think jub goes really well dressed up but not so well with jeans. Oyster on the other hand works in both situations. I personally like the jub but if this was going to be my daily beater, I'd pick oyster

jubilee is more comfortable, plus it looks more sophisticated and elegant as a dress watch.

jubilee

viper · 14 February 2016, 04:47 AM

Jubilee! !

THC · 14 February 2016, 04:48 AM

To me, and I have had both, the Jubillee is nicer, but the oyster is more durable long term

sea-dweller · 14 February 2016, 04:53 AM

Oyster, for me!

Boothroyd · 14 February 2016, 04:57 AM

Great DJ model you selected. I would personally go Oyster for the bracelet.

Just wondering..is the Easylink feature at all important to you? I believe that is only available on the Oyster.

HogwldFLTR · 14 February 2016, 05:05 AM

For me with the particular watch I like the oyster with PCLs. With fluted bezel it would look better on the jubilee.

TheRolexKingofLV · 14 February 2016, 05:09 AM

How about getting both bracelets!? Then its like having 2 entirely different watches...swap em back n forth! Just an idea...Congrats in advance

ddaly12 · 14 February 2016, 05:11 AM

With that bezel, I like the oyster. More understated. Fluted, go jubilee.

I agree. Oyster with a domed bezel, Jubilee with a fluted bezel. Here's mine (that's in the for sale section) on a jubilee with fluted bezel

psychokandy · 14 February 2016, 05:28 AM

For me I would prefer jubilee on 36mm and oyster on 41mm

chino0823 · 14 February 2016, 05:34 AM

Oyster

Jack T · 14 February 2016, 05:34 AM

Love that dial. Actually, I have both bracelets for the same watch. Originally came with the Jubileee, I switched it out for the oyster bracelet that's standard on the 36mm Oyster Perpetual watch (same case as the DJ). It's all brushed and solid links, beefed up clasp. Haven't taken it off in two years. Go figure.

So...I'm really not much help.

CDNWatchNut · 14 February 2016, 05:37 AM

I agree with what a few have already said, oyster with the polished bezel, jubilee with the fluted.

Another vote for oyster bracelet with the domed bezel :-)
Beautiful watch, congratulations!

123Blueface · 14 February 2016, 05:50 AM

Spent 25 years wearing and loving the jubilee.
Now prefer the oyster.

Manofsteelpt · 14 February 2016, 05:57 AM

Jubilee for that dial would be my choice.

jerseyb · 14 February 2016, 06:00 AM

I'd go Oyster if its my only watch.

This maybe right. I really like the OP's with the oyster bracelet. To me it's very classy but on the one above with the fluted bezel I really like the Jubilee.

GrandAnimus · 14 February 2016, 06:16 AM

Oyster meets with OP's needs

blindpilot · 14 February 2016, 06:18 AM

I like jubilee with fluted bezel; oyster with smooth bezel.
