To me this takes away from one of the Explorer's greatest qualities: its unrivaled versatility.

Looks pretty sharp! Dress it up or dress it down. It all works with that watch.

I’m an oyster man. But if I had one of those bracelets laying around, might toss it on the explorer once in awhile for a change. Not bad.

Some feel handcuffed to only the options Rolex will sell you.

I think you’ve put an exclamation point on why any option could go with any watch quite well.

Now does anyone have a TT Jubilee to show on their Explorer?

I think it compliments the smooth bezel very well. I would love to add this as a change to my "all Oyster" SS models.

Looks great!
As an owner of both Oyster and Jubilee Rolexes, I prefer the jubilee. I like the way it looks and find it more comfortable than the Oyster.

If I could put that combo together I’d likely never take that watch off my wrist.

What kind of Jubilee & end links would I need to put this on a 2016 39mm Explorer?

- You can use either of the 2 versions of the super jubilee with hidden clasp by using the 1.8mm springbars.

- Or you can use the 502T end pieces with a 62510H '50' Jubilee and use the 2mm springbars that came with the Explorer. This option gives you the traditional fold over clasp.

- I am sure you could also put the jubilee from the BLRO on it, but someone else would have to confirm.

* I put this together using 502T end pieces and an aftermarket bracelet (I was able to use the original 2mm spring bars) . I also opened the connector links on the bracelet to accommodate the original clasp and I can still use the easy link.

I feel this gives it a 5 digit vibe, with the updated clasp :)

I saw a guy in a dealer in NYC sporting this, thought it was an interesting spin on a Ceramic Daytona, but still prefer on Oyster...... Thoughts?

It looks nice but I wish they offered the jubilee on the 39mm Oyster Perpetual. I think that would look great on the black or white dial OP.
