I own one with Jubilee bracelet but kind of like the Oyster look.

Anders, that's a fantastic and very pretty babe you have there and thanks for your expert advice the other day. Decided not to pull the trigger on that particular opportunity but definitely on the look out for a full package rootbeer. Very cool

Anders, my friend by no means I am trying to steal your thread. However, after looking at your Rootbeer on an Oyster bracelet and mine on a Jubilee I need to hear from everyone which one do you guys prefer? Oyster or Jubilee?
I've been considering getting an Oyster bracelet for mine but I am not sure yet.

Truly a gorgeous example.
I am partial to the two-tone Jubilee, but this looks very nice indeed.

![]() Personally, the Root Beer is the only TT watch I like... And it looks much better on an Oyster IMO. It works better with the case, and if it's a nipple dial, then with the hands and hour markers... don't find the same kind of 'integration' with the Jubilee. Yours would look amazing on an Oyster... a brand new Oyster is around £1300 inc Vat... I have all the ref details etc at home, can post them later ![]() VIntage Jubilees also tend to be really stretched and they bite into your skin.. a Super TT Jubilee won't fit unfortunately, well it will, but there will be a massive gap and it will look far from flush..

AAaaaggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every once in a while I get the bug for one of these and can never find what I want in good condition for a good price. I prefer the jubilee myself but would probably swap it out every once in a while. Now I may go looking again........ Awesome looking watch!

It used to be mine until I saw the pics posted by Anders (puffy). I might just get the Oyster one and rotate every once in a while.
