I’m usually a snob for oyster bracelets, but that Breitling really looks nice. Nice job and comparisons Kevin! 💪💪

@WrongTimeWatch Жыл бұрын

Thank you. I don't have much experience with mesh bracelets as I tend to prefer an oyster, jubilee, or presidential bracelet as well.

The Breitling bracelet is quality 👌

The clasp is shocking at that price point though.

I think so too, it felt very nice in hand.

Mesh is sexier than a jubilee and less common. Don’t get me wrong, a jubilee is an amazing bracelet but I simply love the texture of mesh. Great content!💪

Thank you very much, and I agree, the mesh bracelet just looks so good.

The Brightling watch and mesh bracelet looks absolutely stunning, By a long shot . In my humble opinion . Thanks for sharing this very informative video.

Thank you for watching. It certainly does feel more premium as well.

Thanks for this comparison, Kevin! I did not know that there are milanaise straps to adjust like the Breitling. The most famous 3rd party supplier for milanaise straps seems to be Staib in Germany. Best regards, Frank

Is Vollmer known well in Germany? I never heard about them, but they seem quite good.

@einfranke677 5 ай бұрын

@@TheRacerRichThe Ernst Vollmer Company belongs to the german Aristo watch company in Pforzheim. They are quite well known in Germany. Nevertheless Staib is the No. 1 for high quality milanaise bracelets in Germany.

I have a tapered strapcode mesh bracelet I’ve mentioned it before you should check them out comes satin or high polish finish looks like the breitling bracelet

Don’t they scratch inside of lugs? I’m thinking of getting into these types of straps instead of leather for my dress watch, but worry they will scratch inside of lugs

@WrongTimeWatch Жыл бұрын

That is a good question, they might scratch the inside of the lugs, I have not noticed it, but I have not worn a watch with a mesh strap that much.

@bim23885 9 ай бұрын

100% it will scratch the watch (lugs) on the inside. I can confirm. I have used an aftermarket not very expensive bracelet on a Seiko 5. I can see scratches after 2 years. But they were there already after a few months., so no mather if you wear the watch from time to time or all the time, it will still end up being scratched. 😅

@jaysterling26 Жыл бұрын

Finding a good mesh ( especially for 19mm lugs) to me is like finding a GADA watch i.e. cheaper one's specs or in trial don't convince, or one wants the Staib/ Omega specs but not the price ( & not 100% of the design tbh). As a sage says,'Don't get into watches!!'.

@WrongTimeWatch Жыл бұрын

Yea, 19 mm and 21 mm lugs should be BANNED. Hopefully you can find one that works for you. I hear that Strapcode offers some nice mesh bracelets. I totally agree, one should not get into watches if they want to keep their sanity.
