Can an after market mesh bracelet live up to the look, feel and quality of a Rolex?

Mesh bracelets have become very popular over the last couple of years, I wasn’t sure but having tried a few I’m hooked. The lack of taper is carried off far better than with a conventional link bracelet.

Dude, that ISL-18 with that band is 🔥 , had to rewind & pause the video to look at it again. Do you sell the titanium conversion or is it just a prototype ? The mesh band when you wore it actually looks good, it showcases the Rolex watch well.

Been thinking about one of these for my Planet Ocean which has a 20mm lug width. I would prefer the more fitted end links but willing to give the straight bars a chance as it looks great on yours Marc. Oh yeah and the butterfly is the one I prefer although most prefer a clasp. Your thoughts?

I used to think mesh looked too blingy, but after trying a brushed shark mesh bracelet on one of my divers they grew on me, mostly due to the comfort. However, I still don't think they go with every style of watch, especially not on a flieger or field watch, but I'm open to have my opinion changed.

Back in the 60's my father wore mesh bracelets on some of his watches. Myself, I prefer exotic leathers, rubber, and sailcloth straps. This leads me to my question, do you plan to make sailcloth straps? By the way, your Yachtmaster is one of my grail pieces.

Why the hell not. Rolex is a just a cash grab these days ... Designs have gone downhill... They won't expand to meet demand... They're not innovative. I mean Omega is the better brand these days. The Rolex name costs you at least a 2-6 thousand extra dollars.... If you can buy one. That Milanese meet strap definitely on par with the Rolex finishing. (It's really not all that impressive) Rolex would probably charge you $800 for one that looks just like it with their name on it... Maybe in their proprietary stainless steel.
