Is the Jubilee Better?
I decided to try a Forstner Jubilee Style 5 link bracelet on my Tudor BlackbayHeritage 41. I think it works making it look more vintage, thoughts? It is extremely comfortable, and very well made.

I have a Forstner flat link bracelet on my BB58, great fit and very comfortable
I know I'm in the minority, but I actually really like the stock Tudor bracelet. That said, I do wish that they'd make a five link with the T-Fit for my BB GMT.
Forstner makes very good quality bracelets. I have one on my retro inspired SKX, and love the idea of getting one for my BB58. Tudor bracelets are built well, but they’re a bit hard to get a good fit with.
Big fan of jubilee bracelets.
oh YES it's better in EVERYWAY

I picked the jubilee any day! btw mine is from #uncleseiko but I can second #forstner 's quality. I am a big fan of their bracelets myself!
I think it’s better in terms of comfort compared to the oyster, but outside of those narrow confines, the jubilee has many competitors.

The stock bracelet is nice and it's very well made. You can feel the quality in the tight tolerances and its comfortable wear.
Unfortunately it lacks microadjustment and my wrist size is right between what can be adjusted via the links.
No matter how I adjust the bracelet it's either just a bit too tight or just a bit too lose.
I bought an uncle seiko jubelee bracelet. The tudor clasp fits that bracelet and The jubelee links are just that bit shorter than the standard links making it fit perfectly.
And with the original tudor clasp it looks like it's an original bracelet
Looks top notch and this tapering makes it such a comfy wear 👌
I have a bullet style one and adore it!

I chose the Forstner because of the screw in links, and clasp. Both are very good though! 👍

I must be in the minority also. I like the Tudor OEM bracelet as well.
