Jubilee on both my GMTs. So comfortable as I wear for up to 5 days straight on airline trips. Elegant and not a fan of PCLs. Now, if brushed Oyster was a Rolex option would strongly consider for my BLNR.

I like the jubilee for both. It's just so comfortable.

I think the Rolex catalog makes it pretty clear.

I agree. GMT is not a sports watch. A Sub is and PCL scream desk queen.

In any event, we are blessed to be having any sort of disagreement about something like this.

This has literally never happened to mine. The job are the most comfortable and best fitting bands/ bracelets I’ve ever worn

Maybe you are talking about very old job from the 1950-1970s?

I could be mistaken, but I believe there are ceramic inlays in the links that the pins fit into reducing friction, but the pins are still steel which bends and wears. Ceramic is brittle, not ductile like steel, and ceramic pins would break under stress resulting in lots of lost watches.

Oyster each. I’d go straight to a DD for something silky smooth with less bling appeal

As we know, on the new models you can swap bracelets. Mix and match

Oyster for the clean lines. Still looks blingy / sexy with the PCLs.

That's true, but I don't think there has been a poll like this where these 4 options are given

Yah and i believe this one is asking if you were to have both GMTs vs just having one.

I would propose a 5th option: Fully Brushed Oyster (i.e. no PCL’s) for both. That would get my vote.

I like that. I don’t get the PCL if you could have a full brushed oyster or a jubilee to pick from. That would be a great choice.

I always felt like jubilee had a a feminine look to it. So Oyster for both.

The BLNR on jubilee is the one for me. Not crazy about the BLRO in any configuration.

I prefer jubilee on both, but both watches are great either way.

Jubilee for both! I like that it dresses up the watch a bit and shows less scratches.

I couldn’t decide the BLRO looks amazing with either bracelet in person so for me I had to get both oyster and jubilee bracelets to change out when I’m in the mood for a different look and feel.
