Do you find it more comfortable to wear with the sup-jub than the oyster?

I recently swapped the Oyster bracelet on my GMT 2 (ref 18670) for a Jubilee as well - it's a switch I would strongly recommend. It cost about US$500 at the Rolex Center in Singapore but it's worth every penny - the Jubilee is much more comfortable to wear and looks great with the GMT!

I like the GMT on a jubilee.

I am also over Dead Steves's constant -ve comments.

I should have been quicker when you sold your one JJ.

Janet wants to buy me an SS 116200 Datejust with smooth bezel, white face with WG romans for my birthday in March. This will match the datejust she wears. Her DJ is on a oyster but I might get one on a jubilee and do a swap with my Pepsi oyster bracelet at a later date.

Good idea, Eddie. I would have definitely given you first crack at that Super Jubilee if only I'd known, buddy!!

it is tough for me to tell, to be honest. i have never had issue with the oyster really.. i just always thought a GMT should be on a jubilee.

I'm a bit in the dark here. I once bought a coke GMT 2 from Wesley's Jewelers in Scottsdale with a jubilee bracelet. 15 years ago. Best looking GMT configuration I've seen. So what is a SUPER jubilee? Is this the one with the hidden clasp or what? Can your favorite AD order up and install a Jubilee or "super" jubilee on one's Z series GMT 2? How much can one expect to get for a new oyster GMT bracelet if the switch is made ? Great look.but the details escape me.

new gmt only come on oyster, cant have ad order or swap.. they wont.

we bought jubilee's seperate and retrofitted them to get an old looking gmt like when they came on jubilee

old jubilee's were hallow links in middle and non solid end link and regular style clasp... super jub's have solid links, solid end links, and hidden clasp

i am wearing my gmt on jub now.. pics tomorrow maybe
