I find it nicer then a normal mesh bracelet
I really enjoy the leather strap on mine — and an alligator strap is order — but that bracelet certainly makes a lot of sense for the hot and humid DC summers.
And I would not have imagined how well this dial goes with this steel bracelet. Outstanding!! All the best Thomas
Still, I love the mesh version that you sent me 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
On the auction site 18mm and wider $40, jacksonwatchband. If it’s 17mm or 16mm then Forstner Bands $125. They both are made in China, Forstner is based in Massachusetts. I don’t know why Jackson doesn’t offer 17 or 16mm. Forstner also offers riveted, stretch and solid, but only 18mm and wider.
Another supplier is PivateEye in Japan (watchnetdotcodotjp.)Good selection of Gayfreres reproductions, visually, good quality at about $150 and up. Sizes start at 16mm up to 20mm. They used to have lots really beautiful Rolex Bubble Back for sale, see their sold section. They deal exclusively vintage watches.
