I'm only 36. Am I old enough for a jubilee on my Daytona?

Age is a state of mind.

Nice Daytona. The jubilee on a Daytona works really well.

Will the Super Jubilee bracelet have a bit more "heft" than the stock 16710 Oyster bracelet?

You guys are the worst enablers. I've been on the fence to get a jubilee bracelet for the past 5 years. This may need to be the year. Love the pics.

Yes, it will. The 16710 is however so light weight, that you really do not need more heft to balance the watch. But, the hidden clasp is beautiful.

Here's an image from Dan (Pierce):

Thanks, my friend.

That's the pic I wanted to use but the file was too big.

With the release of the 126710 I won't be retiring anytime soon lol!

The classical dilemma Oyster vs Jubilee!

Dan,

Your posts, pics, and thoughts on this forum were instrumental in me getting my 16710. I still keep a PM of a conversation we had 6 years ago when I was in search of and purchased my 16710. You were incredibly helpful.

Come to think of it, you were also the primary person from your posts/pics to get me onto the Tudor line eventually leading me to my purchase of the BBN ETA back then.

Thanks!

I can agree with that - because mentally I'm probably more like 16 than 36.

Perhaps I'm in the minority but I've ALWAYS thought the GMT looked better on a jubilee than oyster..........age doesn't matter. In fact, I think all the above options - Sub, YM, Daytona etc. all look great. It SHOULD be an option.

So you're calling me an enabler!?

Thanks for the kind words, Ken. I've had more than a few wives of TRF members contact me requesting a cease and desist order.

Happy to spread the joy, and on my 29K post to boot.

I was thinking more of a drug pusher. Thank you for making my bank account that much smaller over the years!

Congrats on 29k! You have definitely been one of the most helpful and well-liked members on this forum.

Oh, I've managed to ruffle a few feathers but your sentiments are greatly appreciated.

Not 16710, but 16750...

And was Magnum an old man when he was sporting similar?
