BLRO looks far better imo on oyster, great change.

I suppose that Rolex wanted to differentiate it from its far more costly PM brother.

The jubilee bracelet is far too feminine for me, just my thoughts, reminds me of a ladies Tag Heuer bracelet from the 90s.

JUST STUNNING and how the factory should have released it, in my opinion.

When the Pepsi was released, I had no interest in it as I don't think the Jubilee suits it.

Then another member posted his Pepsi on Jubilee and I fell in love.

Emailed my AD right away and am still patiently waiting for my turn.

I've already got an Oyster bracelet ready fit (off my sub that is using a Rubber B).

Enjoy and I'm so jealous!

Looks good. The Pepsi is a sport watch, and the Oyster compliments it well. The Jubilee is more of dressy bracelet, and I feel doesn’t fit a Pepsi/Dive watch. It’s too blingy.

It's not only about the looks ! Everyone is forgetting added feature of GlideLock clasp and bracelet. It's amazing gives you precise fit to the millimetre, in different temperature and humidity conditions.

One has to experience it to know the difference. I wish my Rootbeer has Glidelock like my Subdate.

Looks Fantastic ! Keep the Blue side up.

I like the look. I own the Pepsi with jubilee but when I feel like wearing an oyster bracelet I wear my sub or hulk.

I’d put it back on the jubilee before giving it to an AD for service or repair. Needs to be on the ORM bracelet.

Correct. The GMT springbars with the 97200 oyster bracelet. They are thinner, but fit. I am aware that they are not as they are supposed to be on the 97200 so I keep an eye on the fit, to be sure they are in place. Seem to work well on my setup.

Wow.

This bracelet definitely changes the feel of the already stunning Pepsi.

Anyone else?

Very cool. I would do this, I prefer the oyster bracelet. Sub clasp over GMT as well!

Glidelock should be offered as an option for any model. It is a game changer for getting perfect fit. I hate how Rolex are acting like apple on topics like this. Forcing people to not modify. Well making it really difficult.

At least omega let me change my speedy clasp.

Love the combo

Wow love the combo maxwells ! Nice shot, this is the dream combo for me ! Also cheers from a fellow A320 F/O ;) BLRO is my grail watch but impossible to get it here from France, not enough of a big shot for now to get on top of a list ;)
