Is one of the best looking.

Though a bit rattling I think.

Best.

Mesh vs BOR

 
By: CL : December 22nd, 2019-09:17
I have been liking having the Milanese Mesh bracelet and the Beads of Rice bracelet on my Habring2. The good thing about the Milanese mesh is it comes in 3.5mm thickness. The BOR is around 2mm which I find it a bit too thin for a chronograph. Still, both ...  

Thanks...

Good to know your preference If I found a BOR in 3.5mm thickness with 18mm width, it will be a torn for me.

Thank you...

my friend called it a feminine strap but I guess real man has no worries :P The vintage vibe of the bracelet is fitting to the watch design, which is also vintage inspired.

I like BOR more!

But would like to use the mesh on a diver. Can you tell me the brand of the mesh bracelet? Best. René

I think this is the best brand. I cannot find anyone doing good BOR yet.

Yes... this BOR

is a very good quality one but I find that it is too thin for a chronograph. I was hoping for something around 3-3.5mm thick. I believe the one used for Patek 1518, created by GF was around 3-3.5mm thick.

Yours is a 7 row version

But there’s a 9 row one which I think would suit better your Chrono, it is sold by Lobtime in Japan. Picture credit: Lobtime. Best. René ...  

I think Lobtime is in HK.

Base on their photos, their BOR bracelets seem to be the same thickness as mine. I have emailed them and will wait to see what they say . Thanks

Thank you very much!!!

Merry Christmas to you. I will go check to see what is their thickness.

Super cool watch CL

Habring on the radar forever.... I wonder, though, why this dial is so limited? Contradictions come to mind... that make one quibble... why limit a dial that is --while SO stunning-- a reference to Longines or let's be very frank--a straight vintage copy-... 

I know what you mean...

I think the limited edition is simply something Habring does with all the various retailers. Note that Habring2 is a very small team and they do not have the resource to do too much. So if their retailer comes out with a design and a suggestion, they will... 

CL, thanks

I appreciate your reply very much. True, not a 'copy' just an 'expression' by me. Shellman is familiar to me, and I understand completely. Still, WHY 5 only??? It is so few as to annoy, still. But at the end of the day, my friend, you got one. And I want ... 

Hi Mostel...

Happy New Year to you . I do think 5 pieces for a Habring 2 edition in Japan is somehow a correct on. Why? This is not a brand that most people will know , plus shellman is not a place where non Japanese will know. If you contact them now, I have a feelin...
