I was recently in search for a 2-tone bracelet, found a nicely made aftermarket jubilee but I later dropped the idea. The Datejust are very popular here and they are all on jubilee, needless to say it makes me feel a bit uncomfortable to wear a non Rolex with a jubilee.
Would you wear a non Rolex watch on jubilee without fears that someone might think you actually wear a "fake" Rolex ? Seriously do you consider jubille bracelet is a Rolex iconic thing ? It seems like only some watches brands dare to make a jubilee bracelet with their own logo (like Seiko).
I vaguely associate it with Rolex, but I don't they were the first to use that design, just the name. Indeed a couple of my older Omegas have a very similar bracelet. It would not bother me to wear a jubilee style bracelet on a non Rolex watch and I doubt that most of the public would recognize the style.
:roll: The Jubilee bracelet, when we would take in a Rolex in trade, the first thing we did
was to check the 'droop'. They would stretch like a cheap rubber band.
I don't care for the jubilee bracelet myself. I think it's too busy looking. I have 3 Rolexes and not a single one of them is on a jubilee. Guess I'm not much for "iconic." :-d

Many Seiko divers have been sold with jubilees. I wouldn't have a problem putting one on any watch if it looked good. The stretchiness makes them really comfortable.
Funny my wifes jubilee is freaking awesome, it has this hidden clasp thingy. I took off my jubilee within 2 hours of getting my rolex just didnt feel like the same quality as the watch head.
