Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has tried the Speedy on the Omega stainless steel mesh bracelet? I just tried it and I was curious on opinions. I may wear it a few days before drawing final conclusions.

Thanks

Looks great. Speedy is a strap monster though, and that includes mesh bracelets.

Looks good. What do you think so far? I like the idea of having the deployant clasp with it, but I have read in reviews that getting the fit just right depends on which length of mesh bracelet you choose.

It looks great in my opinion.

I like it. Another option.

Very cool, it's great that the lug width is the same, making this a possibility. It's a very refreshing look for the watch, one I haven't seen before. I don't think there's a strap or bracelet this watch wouldn't look good on, but that's subjective. Enjoy!

Either this or on a bracelet. This really looks good. Enjoy it.

It's the same issue with the NTTD Seamaster. From what I can tell, it's less about the length of the mesh bracelet and more about the length of the deployant clasp. At least that's the issue for me given my wrist shape. Even with the odd bulging, it's super comfortable.

for me a mesh bracelet works best on a diver. Thats the heritage of them imo. Its a bit like looking at a 300m Seamster with a rally strap on!

Following up here. I’ve been wearing this a lot. I like it. Super comfortable and a great weight. It will be a part of my regular rotation.

@DoricSpiker I totally get your perspective. I think it’s akin to my dislike of the Panerai Luminor Due with 30 meters water resistance.

Not a big fan of the mesh on the Speedy.

Haven't tried this combo but it looks good!

I like it - wear mine on the nttd titanium all the time.

It looks good, I think I should try this out with my Omega Speedy.

Jerrocop · 15 February 2023, 10:26 AM

Not quite jiving with me, it probably looks better in person. I do like the mesh bracelets.
