I just love the green and black. This and the Air-King from Rolex looks amazing to me! Not too much a fan of the jubilee though.

Its a fantasy watch though right?
Also, not interested in ever owning anything with that movement.

Fantasy maybe... I don't believe that the 116710LN came on a jubilee bracelet from Rolex, but I do like the look of it. Looks expensive but not too flashy...

LN with jubilee is fantasy
BLNR with jubilee is not

This rep has a VR3185 movement, which is the best true clone movement available and based on the awesome VR3135. TD info is wrong on the movement type, they all take the easy way out and say "SA3186", even on the 2824 timebombs.

Is that the VR3185 movement even though it's advertised as a SA3186? These movements confused the living crap out of me.. And why is everyone hating on the jubilee? I love the look of it... even on the LN version..

not REALLY a fantasy, as the minute hand length and no second Coronet on dial, so no 2019 model.

Just a custom band on it ;-)

Fantasy means never produced and sold that way in gen

Oh I thought it meant like a really outrageous model. Let's say color schemes, didn't think a band would make it that already.

I wonder how the quality of the vrf jubilee is. Might take this as my base for frankening. I know it's fantasy but i do like the jubilee. Maybe put in a green gen dw if it's fantasy anyway :D

Yeah it’s a fantasy model. But that’s the best clone GMT movement today. Listing is wrong, it actually has a VR3185 inside the watch.

KJ - Quick question. VRF also released Batman in jubilee with proper dial (coronet at 6) but insert is terrible. Without going any gen parts - Is this VRF (for the movement) with GMF v3 insert the best rep? Have you heard of GMF selling insert separately ? As you know, I am really trying to save my kidney :D

Here is a few pics of a gen with the jubilee. I do like the look, fantasy or not.. I think anyone even with a gen watch can buy a gen jubilee bracelet and wear it. Makes it a unique piece.

It's not an uncommon mod gen or rep, this combo is nothing new. Rolex made the 126710 Batman (with Jubilee) have a slightly different SEL configuration so the watch would not take an oyster bracelet. IDK exactly what is different, but people found a way around it and have mated the gen oyster to a gen 126710 case. Maybe it needed a different springbar, or a custom bending of the springbar. So I imagine there would also be some minor issues fitting a gen 126710 bracelet to a 116710 case. The same would likely NOT be true for reps, I think they would be interchangeable, at least within the same factory.
