Hi Kari

Please let me tell you that you inspired me a lot and influenced my choices. Many choices. And on the “way” to collect. Because collecting is not “accumulating”.
But regarding the 5960/1a, I never really liked the straps :-/ sorry.
I love the bracelet so much ! Sooooooooo much.
So much that I bought a 5131/1r just for the bracelet. And.... it is awesome !!
So much that I will be in a few months the lucky owner of a 5131/1p. And... it will be awesome !!
So much that I ordered a custom bracelet from PP for other pieces. And... it will be awesome !!
So much that I try to order a platinum milanaise bracelet from Gay Frères, for my 5905p. And... i hope it will be awesome ;-)
So much that I’m considering a R bracelet on a 3998r I found.
So much that I will be the happy owner of a very rare and probably unique (just like my 3940j black dial) 3970j with a J milanaise bracelet.
Just to let you know, that, I am so happy you can now experience the bracelet 
I really hope you will like it as much as I do.
Let us know ;-)

About 1.5 years ago I bought my 5960/1A

And from the beginning I wore it with a custom strap. I have enjoyed every day. However, I think it was high time to give an opportunity to the bracelet. At least it is comfortable like nothing else. Let's see when it will wear down and loose some of the ...
Perfect 👍

The bracelet is too shiny for my taste
By: dr.kol : September 30th, 2017-03:23
but I might get it brushed. Anyhow, I do not know another bracelet which would be more comfy than this one. Best, Kari
It could be cool. However,

I will not sacrifice the watch but the bracelet I can because it's easy to get a new one. I'm seriously considering brushing the bracelet. Best, Kari
I was thinking about this in the past
By: Mark in Paris : September 30th, 2017-11:01
and maybe we discussed it here also. The only thing I had a doubt about is if the polished case would fit with such brushed bracelet. Or another part on the case side should have been brushed too (a part of the bezel, the case etc...) or some links on the...
The bracelet

Indeed is very comfortable and suits the watch well. I am not sure how it could have been designed differently... If you brush polish the bracelet, would you do the same to the case? I think it looks great the way it is!
thing is....

I would not have liked a partially brushed bracelet.... and a fully brushed bracelet against a polished case would be a tough match.... so not sure how it would be done.... unless of course they introduced a new bracelet design more in line with the Nauti...
I can understand your thoughts on the bracelet, Kari.

But I would give it a try for some weeks before I would do something about it. The shiny look has never been my taste but the more I look at it the less bad it gets. Maybe after a while you will like it as it is.
I have to admit.

The strap conversion takes the watch to a whole new level,Kari’s conversion kit Best, Ahmed
Probably.

But now I try how the bracelet feels. Even now I'm wearing my 5960/1A. Best, Kari

I pulled the trigger and I honestly think the hate for the bracelet is overrated. It looks stunning and is amazing to wear. ...

I tasted in the past the Egyptian beer, both "local" and "export" and I'm not a big fan of those. Best, Kari

I have the 5960/1A coming today with the white dial. I love your strap, would you mind telling me what it is and where you got it? Is the change easy and does it fit well with the leather strap? Also what buckle did you use? Thanks for your help...Jim [Em...
