This seems to vary by location. MY AD got me a Jubilee for my TT white Sky Dweller which originally came on Oyster. I opted to keep both bracelets.

Great input today! I’ve been heavily leaning Oyster! Why? Because I’m all about keeping the Sky-D as a sports watch, and my use case as a daily wear really lends itself to the Oyster bracelet. Love the jubilee on DD and DJ watches! Love the jubilee on the Batgirl, and the Pepsi! The Sky-D is a large format, heavy watch body and pretty busy dial with its many complications. Fluted bezel makes it a beautiful design, upscale sports watch when paired with the Oyster bracelet, IMHO. When you put this watch on a jubilee, it’s really classy, and with the green/blue, heck Slate/White, it really is quite dressy.
We Fancy! But I’m after a daily wear, kick it, go any wear (pun intended, not misspelled where), do anything sports watch that isn’t a GMT/Sub. This is the watch for me. But just not on Jubilee. Maybe I get a jubilee and dress this bitch up occasionally! Sure! I’m going Oyster folks! Thank you for all the input today! The poll is open for a week, so feel free to log your preferences, and certainly post why you selected/voted the way you did/do. Cheers all! |

I was allocated one with blue dial on jubilee, which my son ended up taking.
Great looking in either bracelet.

Either bracelet works very well with the sky-d.
In my opinion, the blue sky on a jubilee is perfection. I can dress up or go casual and it looks great. Enjoy your decision! |

I own the SkyD Blue on Oyster, purchased before the Jubilee option was available.
I love the way it looks and feels with the oyster. Not sure if I would choose the Jubilee if I had to buy today. probably not |

Op, it All depends on your preference, I like the jubilee on that model looks more elegant and also makes it look smaller on the wrist being that it’s a 42MM, the oyster is more sporty to me but it also looks very nice. So for me it would be the availability factor? Or how long of a wait.

I have both and prefer the jubilee the oyster just feels clunky to me. It just wears more comfortably on the jubilee and fits around my wrist better.

Its the original. Rolex know what they are doing when they launch a model, to then offer alternatives is great, but the OG is always the one. The 12 Pepsi is probably the best example of that. Weird to choose Jubilee to launch with, but with hindsight, they knew what they were doing! But as I mentioned in my previous post, you cant go wrong with either option on the Sky, both options look stunning. Enjoy in good health when it arrives! |

The Jubilee is too “busy” to me … I prefer the Oyster bracelet.

How well can you tolerate hairline scratches all the time?? The jubilee significantly hides any marks and looks new all the time with little to no touch-ups other than its clasp. The PCL on the oyster highlights every little mark and can look beat up if you don’t constantly touch up the pcl. This is just a fundamental design difference between the two.

I'm finding WOS a fantastic AD to work with, and I just started a relationship with them. This SKy-D is my first Rolex request with them, and my purchase history is only one watch, an Omega Appolo 8. The SA I'm working with is fantastic!
If you're in NY, go see Allen Lai at the Hudson Yards location. PM me for a referral if anyone would like one. He is amazing to work with and will get you your grail watch. |

My vote is jubilee. Just works really well with the fluted bezel.

Prefer Jubilee
Already own a beautiful two tone white dial with jubilee which is my favorite reference from all my Rolex watches. So much so I have requested both blue and green dial SS models, however will take one on oyster and one on jubilee just to mix up things...

Sky-Dweller on Oyster or Jubilee
Definitely best on Oyster Flex, imho.

Oyster for me. I prefer letting the Ring Command/bezel and dial be the show. With also the jubilee, it’s just too much going on for me.

Jubilee, then Oyster. Don’t care for the weird OF bracelet, on anything Rolex puts them on. They’d be great on divers. Not sure why they put them on other models.
