Is that the OEM bracelet?? If so could you take a pic of the clasp please? Does it have a polished finish? Thanks!

It's a WatchGecko Shark Mesh bracelet and Yes the clasp is polished (and a scratch magnet!)

^^^ thanks very much. I don’t have much choice of aftermarket bracelets for my LLD 36 because the lug width is 19mm

I’m considering an OEM bracelet instead of buying another watch!

Depending on the type of links you looking for you might be able to fit a 20mm mesh on a 19mm Lyndsey. It was a bit of a faff with some side cutters but I cut links out of one a got from eBay and it will fit 19mm. It’s a bit of a gamble but much cheaper than an OEM.

Sorry about the rubbish picture but I think you see what I mean and it does look ok when it’s on the watch.

With a mesh bracelet like that, with tube ends - a couple of quid on a suitable file and a bit of elbow grease, you can take 1/2mm off each side - presto 19mm ends. Done something like that before, but with folded end links. A tube end will be easy in comparison, just don’t let the file run loose down the sides of the bracelet. Saves quite a bit to get the same look and you don’t notice the missing half a mil either.

Edit: Or something like... https://www.watchandclockparts.com/prod ... er-clasp-b for a specially made 19mm shark mesh. Not cheap, but maybe quite a bit cheaper than the Longines version... sold out atm, but they’ll probably be back in stock at some time.

Feel bad when I have not worn this watch in a while.
