BLNR (Batman) Jubilee vs Oyster Bracelet?
Which do you prefer? I just got the BLNR with the Jubilee bracelet and I love it but curious what the forum likes better? I got the newer GMT as I wanted a SS Jubilee and already have the CHNR. I really like the combo of flash of the Jubilee with the sportiness of the GMT II - others not so much. I also like the originality of the Oyster and the fact that they do not make them anymore.

Jubilee. Sporty and robust yet dressy.

Distinguishes the watch from the other sports watches. Personally my favourite SS Rolex.

The jubilee on batman looks awesome. Better than the pepsi on jubilee.

I prefer my BLNR on oyster. BLRO could go either way.

Looks more “cosmopolitan” on the jubilee.

Jubilee

One could argue whether or not the Oyster looks better on the BLNR because that's how it's always been, the Jubilee on the BLRO on the other hand gives me some of that classic charm and it's wayyyy more comfortable and cooler for the summer months.

Oyster on a dive watch is my preference. I think a Jubilee looks better on a non dive watch.

Really you could flip a coin. Both look stunning IMO. Congrats on the pieces.

BLNR on jubilee really surprised me. I like it more than I thought I would. Elegant, sporty and very comfy.

people who are saying oyster are saying it because they don't have an extra jubilee and pins to put on it. it's sweet on the jubilee for dress. on the oyster for sport.

Brushed Oyster or Jubilee for me. I don't like PCLs on a sports model.
