I love Oyster bracelets, but voted Jubilee. I REALLY miss my Super Jubilee. Look forward to owning a President someday.

Have both. If they were clothes, my oyster wears like a thick sweatshirt, my jubilee like a similar weight knit sweater , if any of this makes sense.
And like the clothing, you conform to the sportier more structured former, and the dressier latter better conforms / drapes to each persons unique anatomy ,imo.

I have owned all three. They all feel pretty darn good. Voted for the President because, well it is a President.

President not only feels comfy, but the bracelet is a classic... Oyster - can't say same thing for the look. Not exactly my type.

Correct gentlemen... Thankfully and graciously I can strap on one of my low key but expensive references when I go into work, however, observing my timepiece wearing habits I most of the time reach for my simple Datejust references. I am typically wearing Gold or my 5712/1A on the weekends. My timepieces with straps are for when I know it's not going to be a long day in the office. As some may be aware a heavy timepiece (Duometre Lunaire/SkyDweller) not so much my 5130P on a strap, makes a timepiece feel so comfortable like one is wearing air

Jubilee for sure. The smaller the links the more comfortable the bracelet.

I have the President, Oyster, Jubliee, Super Jubliee, and the Masterpiece .. The jubliee is the most comfortable for me.

Bogus Poll because most of us who voted, myself luded, haven't worn all 3 styles. I have Oyster and Super Jubilee and both are great but pressed to pick one I vote Super Jubilee.

Skyking31 with the added benefit of wearing the Masterpiece (lucky man! It is spectacular) casts the most important vote.
