DJ 41 Jubilee vs Oyster

[lmator]

Hello everyone!

I'm considering buying a DJ 41 2024, but I can't decide between the Jubilee and Oyster bracelets. I like both of them, which makes the choice very difficult.

I know this is an old debate. While many posts online suggest that the Jubilee is a dress bracelet and the Oyster is a sports bracelet, these distinctions don't really help me make a decision.

What do you folks think?

My personal opinion is that if you go fluted bezel, get the jubilee. Smooth bezel, go with the oyster.

+1. I would agree with this.

Jubilee is more comfortable and doesn't show scratches like the Oyster does. If you are getting a fluted bezel, get the Jubilee. The Oyster looks best on the smooth bezel.

Agree.
Also mint green dial is sublime

I only have fluted bezel DJ41's; I guess I go against the grain in my preference for the look of the Oyster.

This.

I had a fluted bezel / jubilee then traded in for an oyster / fluted bezel. I feel it’s the best of both worlds. Sporty and Classy.

This.

All personal preference, mind.

I think it needs flutted as it classic Rolex and the smooth can look a bit plain, like something is missing.

Flutted and Jubilee can look too old man for my taste, although excusable with a more modern dial, blue, mint, Wimbledon.

Flutted and Oyster gives a nice classic and sporty combination with all dials.

I have been through a bunch of versions, and have settled on the smooth bezel / jubilee….the comfort of the jubilee is unbeatable and the oyster just scratches too easily. I’m also just not a fan of anything fluted. .

Jubilee is simply the best IMO

Gotta go jubilee, flutted bezel … I’d even go two tone ~ so classic

I like fluted with oyster for the dressy and sporty look

I like the jubilee better. But when I bought my DJ41, I already had a Submariner on an Oyster. So the Jubilee offered a lot more contrast and became even more appealing to me. If you think you might get a Submariner in the future, this is something you may want to consider.

Jubilee with a fluted bezel.

For me, the TT fluted bezel DJ is more dramatic on Oyster, though mine is the 36.

A DJ for me has to be the classic fluted bezel on jubilee. It is the iconic Rolex look.

I went mint green, fluted, oyster and couldn’t be happier .

I like this thread. It shows how we all have differing opinions on the perfect combo.

I went for the opposite (mainly as it was the option offered out the blue...or green).

I prefer the classic look of jubilee with fluted bezel for the DJ.

[1William]

Jubilee and fluted for me.

[rmagoo57]

Go with the jubilee on the DJ. Plenty of other models are only available with the oyster.

For me it's this..... beat of both worlds
