Del 4,462 Posted March 13, 2011 As many of you know, I recently bought Rolf's (mondeov6) Breitling SOH v2 with Swiss ETA 2824-2 movement. It's on an aftermarket mesh strap, which suits the watch very well, and is in superb condition - it would have been rude not to take some pics :yoda: The watch runs beautifully and the crown screws in and out without any drama - it is a delight to operate. This is a watch that I've admired for some time so when Rolf's went up for sale I couldn't resist . This baby is a keeper! Ok, on to the eye candy...

Takken 0 Posted March 14, 2011 Amazing looking watch there Del. May I ask from whom/where did you get that Breitling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,462 Posted March 14, 2011 Amazing looking watch there Del. May I ask from whom/where did you get that Breitling? Thanks . Mondeov6 was kind enough to sell it to me . I believe Mary can still get them though if you want to buy a new one (which is where this one originated). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E-Dub 0 Posted April 1, 2011 @Del or Mondeov, Can you comment on the "aftermarket mesh strap"? Where was it sourced, does it accept the original clasp (as the suppaparts does for the ploprof)? This may need to be what I do next. Just classic! E to the Dubs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ska 11 Posted April 1, 2011 Hey buddy there are two current aftermarket 24mm mesh straps worth a look for the SOHv2. One is much cheaper and available on eBay here: Ebay Mesh The other one is made by Staib and available here: Watch Band Center Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mulder 0 Posted April 1, 2011 Sweet watch Del. High on my list of what next to buy. Still waiting on my Navitimer from Mary. There was a hold up with sending it which was gratefully appreciated on my part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThinkBachs 1 Posted April 1, 2011 I can't believe I never noticed that some of theses dials came with an extra "L" in that OFF... word. Too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E-Dub 0 Posted April 1, 2011 Hey buddy there are two current aftermarket 24mm mesh straps worth a look for the SOHv2. One is much cheaper and available on eBay here: Ebay Mesh The other one is made by Staib and available here: Watch Band Center Both have nice closed end links. A bit strange on the clasp though. Still a beauty. May need to start a new thread with a poll for my next watch, although this is leading the pack... At least until I open another thread.

This may need to be what I do next. Just classic! E to the Dubs Firstly, thanks Ska for answering this one . @ E-Dub, as far as I know, you cannot get a 24mm mesh with a closed end at the lugs that tapers to 20mm to take the Breitling clasp. I've been looking and the only one I can find that is 24/20 has open ends (used be other members on their Ploprofs). Sweet watch Del. High on my list of what next to buy. Still waiting on my Navitimer from Mary. There was a hold up with sending it which was gratefully appreciated on my part. Thanks mulder Beautiful watch Del, a real stunner.

Del 4,462 Posted April 1, 2011 great watch and pics........I hate the mesh tho.... You hate the mesh?! Wash your mouth out boy! Actually, I was unsure myself at first but when I got it on my wrist I was hooked! Having said that, I've got a blue Ocean Racer strap to put on when the notion takes me .
