Grinning ear to ear like a cheshire cat!

Got a whatsapp yesterday from my AD. Picture of a Pespi.... Something for the weekend sir?

I haven't smiled so broadly in a long long time. It's not my most expensive addition but it is by far the most anticipated. Had no interest in it at release as I don't like the Jubilee but after short while, saw pics on this forum with it fitted with an oyster.

Love at first sight! Straight onto my AD and put in my request. Weeks and months came and went... 18months in total I waited and during this period, had other incomings but no Pepsi....

Picked up today and I am so happy now to get this and looking forward to putting it onto an Oyster.


Thanks for reading!

Congrats on a spectacular Rolex! Give the jubilee some time. I wear mine 24 hours a day for days at a time--so comfortable and light. I too wanted Oyster bracelet but now would not switch out the jubilee.

Looks great on your wrist, too. I think, if you give the jubilee some time, you’ll love it!

+1

The jubilee was the attraction for me and a welcome addition to my oyster gang!

Congrats. Looks great!

You should leave the bracelet alone. It's pretty amazing. If you blow a spring bar out the top lug you'll be sorry.
