Oyster, the jubilee makes it look too dressy for a sport watch.

You must feel the same way about the BLRO then. But let me guess, you don't, haha.

And what about the "Pepsi"... How has that always been? Lolol

So your preference then is jubilee on the GMT. Understood.

No, my preference is a Oyster. However, they both look nice.

My point was the BLRO has a heritage of being not only on the oyster, but also the jubilee going back to the 1980’s whereas the BLNR has only been on jubilee since 2019.

The Jubilee is comfortable, but in my opinion does not offer enough offsetting weight for the maxi watch head. The oyster wins.

I have a Batman on an oyster bracelet and a Pepsi on order. I think the two different bracelets give the watches even a more different look.

Since when is a GMT a diver? Might want to check what you wrote, or retool your thinking.

You understand the hypocrisy of what you just said right?

you and I must have a different definition of what hypocrisy is...my answer to the OPs question was the Jubilee, I then followed it up with why I think some members may prefer the oyster

The GMT Master ll on the jubilee is the perfect Rolex watch. Unless you have one photo's don't represent it well. The jubilee bracelet is far more comfortable then the oyster and it's not a shiny as the polished center link oyster. It also separates it from the dive watches. Don't like it at all on an oyster.

I don't particularly like the BLNR but I prefer it on the Oyster. Same for the BLRO and CHNR. The Jubilee looks overly fussy to me.

Brushed oyster all the way! My Batman on jubilee is mostly ignored when I fly for the Tudor GMT on the robust bracelet.

Jubilee is a good watch most especially for a dress.
