Has The Strap Monster Finally Met It's Match??
One of the intrinsic benefits of Tudor's 5 digit charm is they look great strapped with anything. And y'all know I take full advantage swapping out the rivet for a BC rubber nato or a matching MN from Erika, depending on the scenario. Not to mention the Uncle Seiko jubilee [seen below for comparison] which provides more options at a decent price.
However, thanks to Dave O, who generously confirmed the availability of an OEM Tudor Five-Link w/ T-Fit Clasp that fits the BB chronographs & BB GMT [https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=951319], I had to order one. One month and one day later it arrived and it's a game changer. It was installed & sized in short order. Interesting note: the Tudor jubilee, or Five-Link as Tudor calls it, uses slightly thinner spring bars compared to the oyster, just like Rolex. The end link fit is perfect, with no movement whatsoever. The T-Fit clasp is in a word, ingenious. It's compact, low profile, and super easy to adjust w/ lots of room. The overall fit & comfort of this bracelet is simply amazing. Can a favorite watch get any favoriter? You just can't beat the classic Pepsi GMT on jubilee. This bracelet has really elevated this combo and while I'll still find occasions to swap out alternatives from time to time, more likely than not it will be the Tudor Five-Link. Thanks again, Dave O! dP
