Jubilee is clearly "lighter" to wear, regardless of wrist size. The hand rests. Oyster, on the other hand, fits the paw better, nothing flies, the watch lies as if glued. On a different note ... a lot is written about 32xx calibers, that they have problems with keeping time, that a lot of users give them under warranty for adjustment. Even I thought for a moment that mine wouldn't keep the parameters. 3285 does not move forward like 3186 or 3135, which must be put back up on the 12th night to balance the time. At least that's the case with the watches I own. Here are the results from the last two weeks, worn alternately with Sub, put away at night with glasses up. I have no comments. Well, maybe that Pepsiak dominated my second GMT - Batman. Perhaps it is a moment of the moment, or perhaps the end of a certain clock stage...

Why didn’t you just wire them the money and picked the watch up later when back to town?

Great pic. Winter is a tough time to get a good watch pic. You nailed all the elements of the setting sun on that jubilee. Depth, clarity and no lint around the cyclops..

This is the morning sun, and there was no lint because the watch was freshly washed.

Does it sit well on the wrist with that jubilee? I am used to Oyster bracelets on GMTs. Sharp piece - talked to my dad the other day and we both agree the blue and red fits it beautifully. Great piece my friend, wear it in good health.

Both bracelets are comfortable to wear. Jubilee has shorter cables, so it can be better adjusted to the wrist. Oyster is stiffer and more stable, but on hot days it loses to the "looser" and more airy Jubilee. Visually, for me Jubilee also slightly wins.

Just curious how many links in jubilee equate to oyster… another words if you take 2 oyster links out to fit your wrist how many on jubilee?

In my free time, I will take measurements and publish the measurement results of both bracelets - the length of the links - here. Now I'm watching the Australian Open men's final.

I like both the Jubilee and the Oyster Bracelets but the Jubilee just goes so well, I prefer it.

A Jubilee link is 8mm per link. A oyster is 10mm per link.

Someone once wrote that a sports Rolex does not match a more elegant formal outfit. I will try to disprove such claims.

Spoke with SA last week. Pulled up the yearly allocation for BRLO's, receiving four total for the year. Bracelet option is unknown until it arrives. Just thought I'd share. Small AD.

My medium sized AD said they get about 4 BLRO total and 12 Daytona pandas. Crazy.
