Best Five Link Bracelet
I was at the mall yesterday. Stepped into a store to look at the new Moonwatch. I was shocked the bracelet was not as robust as the Jubilee bracelet. This made me think, who makes the best five-link bracelet?

Rolex gets my vote. Jubilee has been the been the most comfortable and best looking 5 link since the 6251 on the DJ

I don’t have any experience with anything other than my 126710, but it’s very good

I have a Speedy and a Rolex DJ. Rolex jubilee is way better IMO

The jubilee actually looks nicer from inside out.

I wonder how it compares to Patek and Lange’s five link. I know this is a Rolex forums so it should be bias.

The PP 5 link bracelet on the 5960 & 5036 are like butter. On a different level vs. the Jubilee. Jubilee is excellent, though.

 Agreed. PP 5960 5 link is most comfortable bracelet I’ve owned. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

What's your thoughts on the Fostner flat link bracelet for the speedy?
I don't own one but heard a lot rave about it Sent from my SM-G991B using Tapatalk |

I had a platinum DD36 and that bracelet was solid and excellent overall (even the screws were platinum!) — but my favorite, even if it’s not actually five links, is the Patek Neptune / ref5085. Sublime!

Love that piece! I was a holdout on the 5960 bracelet for years. Finally pulled the trigger and now wish I had years ago. It’s the most comfortable I’ve had. New Speedy 3861 bracelet is close and also very comfortable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
