I'm think about a mesh bracelet for some Seiko divers.
In my research I find everybody states Omega make the best one, but this is megabucks. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for the best bang-for-buck in the following ranges?
- Under £20
- Under £50
- Under £100
- Unlimited Budget
Might get a cheap one just to try out then go for something better later if I like it.
Apologies if this has been discussed before, couldn't find anything when searching.
Staib make some pretty good quality mesh stuff at not too awful a price.
Look okay for a start, do you have any links to these?
I've seen Staib mentioned as a 2nd best to Omega, will check them out.
Saw these on Aliexpress, probably will try one out for under £3!

Omega's Mesh was designed in the 1970s and isn't all that special considering the now eye watering price. Same with many other older bracelets Omega still sell like the 1171 etc, rattly things from a by-gone age sometimes still using folded links etc. You may find Staib to be better quality and certainly better designed.
Does such a thing as a PVD black mesh bracelet / beads of rice bracelet exist? Looking at a futurn SBBN035 purchase and think one of these types of bracelets would suit it well.
Take a look at goodcheapman on ebay. He's a reliable seller and reasonable prices. I've bought a few and been very happy with them.
