The Breitling bracelet is quality 👌
The clasp is shocking at that price point though.
I agree
I think so too, it felt very nice in hand.
I’m usually a snob for oyster bracelets, but that Breitling really looks nice. Nice job and comparisons Kevin! 💪💪
Thank you. I don't have much experience with mesh bracelets as I tend to prefer an oyster, jubilee, or presidential bracelet as well.
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.
Great video and look into this style of bracelet, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
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
Thanks again for the suggestion. I made a not to check them out.
I have that same seiko 5 love it
My favorite Seiko 5. I think they are a great value.
@WrongTimeWatch I was looking f9r Tissot, but they increased their prices !! But that same one for $199
Nice, that breitling mesh is thick and robust.
It surely is. I was really impressed by it.
Forstners, Komfit bracelet is an excellent choice.
Thanks, I will have to check that out.
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.
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
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.
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. 😅
Prefer the 2mm. Much sleeker and more stylish.
Thanks for watching. I need to wear mesh more often.
Do they make same Breitling bracelet after market ?
cheers!
I am not aware of an aftermarket mesh bracelet like this one offered from Breitling.
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!!'.
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.
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
Thanks for watching, I am happy that the video was helpful.
Is Vollmer known well in Germany? I never heard about them, but they seem quite good.
@@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.
kevin have you tried OMEGA's mesh strap?
No, I have not. It looks like I could buy one for $760.
Thinner is better for these. Mesh bracelets are supposed to be dressy and sleek. Plenty of other excessively bulky bracelets out there.
Thanks, that is a good point which I have not considered before.
👍
Thanks for watching
Its crazy that different types of mesh bracelets are out there I'm leaning towards the Breitling mesh
It really is nice, but I am sure that it is expensive too
Staib!!
Thanks for the suggestion
