Thoughts on these metal mesh for my C60 38mm
Re: Thoughts on these metal mesh for my C60 38mm
Love how comfortable these bracelets are, but just can't get behind the look of them - especially the thinner mesh. I just don't think it looks right on my C60 GMT.

I do not like the springbar to case gap on the Trident. The safe solution will always be a proper bracelet with fitted end pieces. However, the CW curved ends leather straps look fine for a dressed up look, helped by them being well padded.
There's always time for one more.

Kind of agree with the majority here, not sure I like the look. But maybe better if seen in person as Kip suggests. Of the two you show I like the 2nd. I think the first is a little "precious" for the Trident. The 2nd one has a better blend of sporty/classy to my eyes.

I'll go against the general consensus, personally I love the thick mesh bracelet on the C60

Of the two options I'd agree with this

To be honest though, I really love the looks of the Brietling superocean heritage, so I am probably slightly biased
Re: Thoughts on these metal mesh for my C60 38mm
Never been a fan of the mesh type bracelets and I personally don't think it suits the watch ,but each to there own what a boring place it would be if we all liked the same things!

I have had my C60 Mk I on shark mesh for a while. Tried others but like the look.
I recently bought a C60 38 mm and very quickly put it on shark mesh. It is good but does not suit the smaller 38 mm as well as the 42 mm in my opinion but it is fine to wear.
Strange that bars across do not look as good although Breitling seem to pull it off. The same with steel brackets that are straight so that the can be fitted to any watch. But straight leather straps seem OK. It is a strange world.

Re: Thoughts on these metal mesh for my C60 38mm
Got my first mesh strap just recently on a modded Seiko diver and was really impressed at how it looks. I do like to experiment with strap changes on my watches so in the New Year will be tempted try a mesh on my trident C60 GMT which will give it 4 combos in all - CWL stainless steel, CWL black croc & CWL orange croc.
Cheers
