JimmyT Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Evening All, (Aussie time), am thinking of shooting for a Blue Breitling Super Ocean Heritage Rep. I Worked with a guy today who had a Gen, first time I'd ever seen one in the flesh so to speak......love at first sight. As you can see in the attached pics he had an S/S mesh bracelet on it and it looked stunning. Even a Black leather band might look OK Q - Avalability of a Mesh bracelet as per the pics and $ for $ value for Swiss or Asian movement ? Any thoughts........All appreciated. best Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setb Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Mesh Bracelets are awesome and big $$$ when ordering a Gen ...around 500 usd I think .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A huge thanks. Now I just have to find a dealer. I've bought a Noob Sub from Chris at Eurotimez and I notice that he has them there. He's been great but I'll have a poke around and see what's out there. Cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Or slightly cheaper here! http://www.rltwatches.co.uk/acatalog/Bracelets.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guanaco Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Why are mesh bracelets so expensive compared to the traditional Oyster or Jubilee style? I mean, after all it's just SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtraExtra Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 I ask the same question...why so expensive? The cheaper mesh bracelet is 2.5mm thick versus 3.2mm. The cheaper also will not fit the SOH because the lugs are 24mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shundi Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Supply and demand probably.... mesh bracelets in that size are sort of a specialty niche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
