No dial, just the band: a sleek, closed link that sits flat around your wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this style works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe links are short and set closely together, so the bracelet moves with you and has no sharp edges. That makes it more comfortable over a long day than a chunky link bracelet. The flat top surface gives one continuous band of shine instead of scattered highlights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWearing it with a watch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear it on the opposite wrist rather than alongside your watch. Two similar links compete for attention, and metal rubbing against metal all day scratches both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese models are made from \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/stainless-steel-jewelry\"\u003esolid stainless steel\u003c\/a\u003e. The silver-coloured jubilee is bare polished steel with no coating: nothing can wear through, the colour does not change and wear leaves no lighter patch, so you can keep it on in the shower. The gold and rose gold versions are finished in five layers of PVD; that bonded finish is harder than ordinary plating, which counts on a bracelet whose links rub against each other all day. It is still a layer, so those two come off before the shower and the gym. None of the three goes into the pool, because chlorine is harsher than shower water. And steel is not silver, so a silver polishing cloth has no job here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlso worth a look: the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/cuban-bracelet-collection\"\u003eCuban bracelets\u003c\/a\u003e or the full \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/bracelets-collection\"\u003ebracelet collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"jubilee-armband-goud-rvs-10mm","title":"Jubilee Bracelet Gold Stainless Steel (10mm)","description":"\u003ch2\u003eJubilee Bracelet Gold Stainless Steel (10mm) With Five Rows of Links From the Watch World\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jubilee link is made of five rows side by side, with narrow links flanking the broader ones.
