STAIB Mesh Bracelets REVIEW - Is it worth paying more?

Reviewing two STAIB Mesh Bracelets purchased from Long Island Watch Co. Today's video provides an overview of the two bracelets and engages the question whether it is worth spending the extra money for a high quality mesh versus some of the less expensive options. I also provide guidance on choosing the right size bracelet depending on your wrist size.
Staib 22mm 2784 (130-150mm) - 4.9mm thickness
www.longislandwatch.com/Staib...
Staib 20mm 2792 (130-150mm) - 3.6mm thickness
www.longislandwatch.com/Staib...
My recommendation: Don't buy the lower end pieces. Save your money and buy 20mm and 22mm bracelets for your watches, and purchase the thicker mesh. The thick mesh balances out the watch and rivals the stock bracelet in terms of heft, presence, and quality.

The SOH II chrono was on my list until I saw it at the AD with a scratched bezel on display. I was shocked to be honest. It was the first time for me to see a ceramic bezel with such a visible scratch, on what’s supposed to be a new watch nonetheless. Have you had any issues with scratches on the ceramic insert of the bezel?

Nice review! However, one advantage of the less expensive models in your review is the relative range and ease of size adjustability. Right from the start, the wrap-around type of mesh bracelet will fit a wide range of wrist sizes with near infinite adjustability, and because of the clasp design, the fit can be resized almost on the fly (all that is needed is a paper clip and about 2 seconds) at any time during the day. The clasp on the Milanaise-style bracelet I have is also very secure, and much more discreet than the monster clasp on the STAIB model.

I saw the Heritage bracelet live in the flesh yesterday, and it's not as hefty as the Staib. The Staib is much more significant in the hand. But the Heritage bracelet is more tightly woven and has a bit of a dressier and flashier (Breitling!) look to it. But yes, Staib is an excellent replacement for MUCH less money and certainly an equal in quality.

I frankly wouldn't mind spending more since I'm trying to obtain similar quality to what's offered by the Breitling Supercean mesh. We all know that's as good as it gets but I'm sure that's 1000+ OEM bracelet.

I've tried on the Breitling Superocean mesh, and man, was it shiny and blingy (which I really liked).

Great video, thanks. Sizing on these is so tricky. Would you say that the sports clasp model fits you, in that medium size? At the end it looks a bit snugger than I wear, but you have a couple of pin holes left for adjustment. My wrist currently measures at 7”, but weather etc can alter fit. As you said the fear is that the size up would be slightly too large.

@DavesWatchLove 5 жыл бұрын

If you have a 7" wrist, definitely go with the medium. There will be plenty of room left. Remember too that on watches with longer lug to lug, you'll get even more room. I put the 22mm on my SKX recently for the first time, and I had to tighten up the bracelet.

@visiblemode 5 жыл бұрын

Thanks a lot for the help. You definitely make sense. I want to get one for a watch that’s even larger at 53mm lug to lug, so it just makes sense to go medium, in that case. I do hope there’s going to be clearance from the case, though. It’s a Christopher Ward, also.

This will be paired with a vintage 6306 Turtle (~45mm LtL) and the recipient does sport some pretty hefty wrists. I know a watch with a butterfly clasp bracelet with an inner diameter of approx. 205mm in total fits him OK/a bit loose, so that's my reference... Any help/guesses are appreciated, thanks!

Hi Dave, loved the video! Couple of quick questions for you: out of the two styles, butterfly and sport strap, which one do you find more comfortable on your wrist? Does the weight of the 4.1mm bracelet feel overwhelming or too much? I am planning on putting the 4.1mm one on my green SMP 300 which is my daily driver so to speak. I love the bulkier/meatier look of the 4.1mm bracelet but not at the expense of comfort. Let me know your thoughts! Thanks!

@DavesWatchLove Жыл бұрын

I have an SMP 300 and wear it often on the thinner butterfly bracelet. It looks nice and well balanced, but also more streamlined. Great for business attire. If you want a beefier look, the 4.1mm would give the watch more heft and presence. Comfort is similar, but the clasp is quite bulky. Not uncomfortable, but the clasp is definitely very thick on the wrist. if you don't mind that, I think you'd like it. Best of luck!

@ZlatanKakaTorres786 Жыл бұрын

@@DavesWatchLove thanks for the feedback Dave! Good to know its not uncomfortable per say. The only other issue ive seen people have is that the end of the thicker 4.1mm bracelet rubs against the casing of the SMP 300 which is not good lol. Although, they say that you can use thinner spring bars to take care of that though so hopefully that works for me. Here's hoping. Thanks again Dave!

Would you reccomend the 2784 or 2792 for a Breitling Superocean Heritage 42 ? I bought mine on a rubber strap with a deployant clasp and while i like the clasp i regretted not getting the bracelet straight away. And apparently Staib maked Breitlings bracelets anyway.

@DavesWatchLove 9 ай бұрын

I wear the 2792 with my Omega Seamaster 300. It's the more elegant of the two and would look great on the Breitling. If you want something a little thicker and heavier and more aggressive for your dive watch, a 20mm version of the 2784 would be a possibility. The two bracelets actually feel quite different. The extra millimeter of thickness makes a difference.

Dave's Watch Love thanks so much for that feedback. I guess if you let it out that final notch it would have been a bit roomier, too, by maybe 2-3mm? Is for a larger watch even, at 53mm, I should probably just relax, but it’s not a cheap band.

I have a question regarding the butterfly clasp. About 3 years ago I bought a mesh bracelet from Watchgecko that looks practically identical to the one attached to your Aqua Terra (it says "Geckota" on the clasp; I don't know who made it). I found the butterfly clasp to be a bit uncomfortable. Either some of the edges are too sharp, but more likely it appears that the clasp curves upward steeper than the relative flat underside of my wrist, digging into the flesh sometimes. Have you noticed any slight discomfort from the butterfly clasp in certain situations? Are the two clasps equally comfortable (disregarding the rest of the bracelet)?

@DavesWatchLove Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. I have found the butterfly clasp to be quite comfortable. I'd say it's more comfortable than the folding clasp, as the one featured in the video is quite bulky in the 22mm version. The butterfly clasp is well designed. Best of luck!

Hi Dave. Thanks for the outstanding review and the tip which saved me from (1) erroneous length issues and (2) buying the wrong mesh bracelets. Happy thanksgiving! I am planning to purchase the same 22mm lugged, 4.9mm thick staib bracelet for a Tudor Smiley 79220R. The BB has some strap and bracelet challenges as the lug holes are situated a bit lower and far from the case. Just wanted to seek your help and advise on the thickness of the 22mm bracelet ends, can you share its measurement please? This may sort out the gap size between the case and bracelet lug ends. However Im a bit worried that it may protrude on the front side of the watch when worn on the wrist. I really hope you could help me out. I'm planning to purchase the matte version. I'm just really concerned that it might not work with my BB and the cost would be quite huge to bear for a bracelet fail. Thanks in advance.

Wow, that's a close one. My Speedy is the 44mm and the 150mm fits well on my 7.25 inch wrist. But with the slightly shorter lug-to-lug on the 42mm, it would be close. Since you're closer to a 7 and a half inch wrist, then the 170 would probably be the best bet. You'd might have to remove most of the extra links. With the 150mm, you can always get extra links for about $17 each. Just know that with Long Island Watch, they won't take it back unless all the original wrapping is on it. So that will all be off before you know if it fits. :-/ It's a shame there's not a little bit of overlap on the two sizes.

I like the look of the longer clasp and decided that I would rather buy an extra link to extend 150mm.

I use Staib only to replace poor quality metal straps or leather bands though, I probably wouldn't replace a nice metal strap.

Tomasina Covell - yep. I'm a still photographer, not much of a videographer. But let's just say, it's the last time I use AWB. Got some learning to do in Premiere Pro as well.
