It's already hard to find certain dials, now if you need to wait for the right dial, size and bracelet option, you're in for a wait!

I chose my fluted DJ41 with oyster before the great DJ drought of 2019, I thought the jubilee was too "old" looking, but bug finally bit me, and I bought the Jubilee bracelet. Kept the Oyster because if in case I change my mind or want to change it up, I don't think that is going to happen any time soon..

Pro-Tip from a fellow 8incher: You're going to need 2 additional links if you want to have your easylink usable, probably want to order them the same time as your bracelet, they aren't super available

Yes completely agree- the smooth bezel and jubilee work so well together.

For me the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet looks a bit busy and a kind of jingly jangly sparkly look. The smooth bezel with jubilee helps make the watch “dressy casual”.

I think this combo is going to be my next purchase! Just can’t decide between the black dial or the blue.

Voted for the Jubilee. Looks more appropriate for me.

Jubilee with fluted bezel, design icon in my book.

I also prefer oyster, gives the watch a more robust look

The Jubilee compliments the fluted bezel perfectly!

Oyster!

Fluted bezel and jubile is too much bling for me.

Any idea of the price?

Whichever one sings to you. I bought a steel Datejust white dial and had the choice. I tried both on but the Oyster sang a better song. YRMV.
