Uncle Seiko Jubilee vs z199

Hey watch fam!

Some of you may know that I picked up my SPB147 today. Iโ€™m deciding whether to go with the uncle Seiko jubilee or the z199. If you have one on either of these bracelets please show me!! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Howโ€™s the jubilee?

Oh yeah, forgot I have the z199 on the slim Willard. Yeah theyโ€™re both great and miles better than the stock ones.

The jubilee is very comfortable and has a much smaller clasp than OEM. Z199 has similar links to the OEM SPB313 but with tighter tolerances and a much better clasp as well. Both Uncle bracelets are with the money IMO and fit seamlessly.

Which one would you recommend me going with for the SPB? I know itโ€™s personal preference but I still want to know lol

I know it comes down to preference but which bracelet would you recommend me for the SPB147?

I would recommend the jubilee. Polishing and brushing will match the case better.

The z199 works on my 313 because itโ€™s a completely brushed case and mostly angular.

I might take your suggestion and go with the jubilee.

However, are the middle polished links a fingerprint magnet? I also have ocdโ€ฆ I canโ€™t deal with polished bracelets ๐Ÿ˜‚ but because the jubilee have smaller middle links it might be okay?

Yeah they hide prints well because theyโ€™re so curved. Iโ€™m OCD as well but I really like it.

Cool. Then jubilee it is. Iโ€™m also a fan of the clasp more on the jubilee than the z199. However, Larry from Uncle Straps told me he has a new upgraded clasp coming out for the z199 soon in a month or two.

Thanks for all your input. ๐Ÿค

Hey thank you for the recommendation on the Jubilee! Amazing stuff. Extremely comfortable and the quality is pretty solid. I like how it tapers from 20 to 16 unlike the Miltat Strapcodeโ€™s 20-18.
