Oyster or Jubilee?

I know the question is as old as time - what came first, the egg or the chicken? I would like to check our preferences today anyway, and the question is: do you prefer Pepsi on Oyster or on Jubilee?!

Jubilee on the BLRO for me.

My preference for all the modern GMT’s would be:
BLNR and LN = Oyster
BLRO and VTNR = Jubilee

Oyster for me. I find the jubilee too busy, especially in combination with the edge of the bezel.
I also find the oyster more sporty (less dressy) than the jubilee.

Jubilee on both BLNR and BLRO.
Oyster for the Submariner.

Have both bracelets for my BLRO. Always thought I was an oyster guy but jubilee is the better of the two for me. It’s more comfortable, hides scratches better than PCL, lighter on the wrist, and I always get a perfect fit.

Jubilee for me.

Comfort, and shows less signs of wear. Besides, there are so many oyster options in the Rolex line

Oyster for me 100%. Much more sporty, which aligns better with my personality and lifestyle. Jubilee is just too busy for me and comes off a bit dated.

To each their own, however.

I had jubilees, but I never liked them. For me the Oyster is far more comfortable.

Edit: The poll is interesting, a tie 12:12 - I didn't expected that :)

I find the Oyster a stronger bracelet, jubilee more dressy.

I have both bracelets - these are pictures of my watch. The survey is informative - how the preferences of current and future users are shaped.

For me, any GMT goes with jubilee. Separates it from all the other sports watches and the PCLs are scratch magnets for everyday use. Plus I think the jubilee looks way better, more classy and stands out.

Oyster for the aesthetic, in a perfect world the brushed Oyster with Glidelock from the 11661X Sub. Jubilee for wearing comfort and as an homage to the original 6542.

I chose jubilee only because pcls don’t belong on a stainless oyster

Only jubilee bracelet I like is the hidden clasp version. Glad I have it on my 116200 DJ. Don't like jubilee on the classic or sport watch clasps. To me, that combination looks a bit cobbled together. But, that's just me.

if only watch I'd pick oyster but since I have a couple oyster I'm definitely more interested in the jubilee look and don't see them around in the wild as much is another plus

Blro on jubilee
Blnr on Oyster

For those who have both a BLRO and BLNR (seems very common among the TRF crowd) then having one on jubilee and the other on Oyster is a nice way to interchange and mix things up, in addition to the bezel color variety

I have exactly the same set, BLNR on Oyster and BLRO on Jubilee (originally bought on Oyster, Jubilee I bought in AD after some time).

Jubilee for me. If I went Oyster, I would be too tempted to have the center links brushed out.
