Officially entered the old man's club
After years of ridiculing the jubilee as the preferred retirement home ornament, I felt obligated to try one out. Hmmm ... very comfortable ... very sleek... I kind of like it...

Thanks kindly, guys! I'm taking inspiration from a different kind of old man. Plus a bonus shot!

I've always loved the Jubilee, even as a kid when I saw one for the first time on my best friend's Dad's wrist. Maybe I've always been old at heart?

First time I've ever seen one on a Daytona and it looks fantastic! Very nice!

Now you can debunk that ridicule of yours and make it into something you think what it should be. The world is the jubilee's oyster.

I thought the "old man's" club was a TT Datejust with a fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet?

You’ve probably just uncovered Rolex’s Baselworld 2020 party trick.

The Jubilee looks great on your Daytona!

I think the earth would stop spinning on its axis. And Rolex does seem to be pushing oysters to their PM models...
