126710BLNR Finally Pulled the Trigger
Look what arrived at my office yesterday. I'm in love (again). I know opinions differ, but the Jubilee bracelet is stunning and much more comfortable on my wrist.

Funny, I took off for a bit after work and came home to find the sly young man who lives in my house had gone into the safe and was rocking my brand new BLNR. WTF?

I like the jubilee! I was considering buying a datejust when out of the blue literally my dealer called me one day offering the blnr so I promptly went and got it.

I have to say it wears quite well with long sleeves. Congratulations on the acquisition.

Good idea! Kidding aside, its nice to have a teenager who appreciates the majesty of Swiss mechanical watches. Most of his friends never wear a watch, unless its an Apple Watch (or whatever they're called).

Your son needs new friends! Lol

Seriously, that looks great and congratulations. I've always appreciated the Jubilee or Super Jubilee (hidden clasp) or, Ultra Jubilee(?) with new clasp and easy link extension.
Wear that watch in good health sir.

I kinda love that: "Ultra Jubilee."

Although I do love the Super Jubilee with the tiny/hidden crown clasp from a daily beater perspective.

Purchased from Luisecho on TRF Classified section. I was very nervous wiring $$$ to a seller I had never met, in a different State, without seeing the piece.

Flawless transaction, great seller, everything as promised. Paid a bit of a premium, but I thought it was eminently fair. No regrets.
