Breitling Superocean - Mesh vs. Rubber bracelet

[TK01 0]

Guys So I am spending another $400+ on another breitling Superocean in the future. If I am spending that much money do you guys think better to get the

Mesh bracelet ? Or the rubber one ? I heard the mesh one we get with replica is kinda cheap I felt the Genuine one felt like a million dollars on my wrist. But I tried on the Rubber one also at the AThorized Dealer for Breitling and I loved how it clicks in on the runner one.

VS.

Best option for Breitling mesh is to go for a third-party bracelet (Staib is the make most here recommend, although I have a gen Rotary bracelet on mine) - the rep mesh is poor.

 

Personally I have two SOHs. One on ocean racer rubber (which is one of the few rubber straps I can tolerate - I usually hate 'em), the other on the mesh. Best of both worlds

Staib is a person that sells and makes them or ?

This is the one I really want this rubber one I just wonder If I get the SOH will it be close to the genuine ?

Staib is a manufacturer of mesh bracelets, yes.

 

The rep Ocean Racer rubber is pretty good (the earlier ones were better, though). A gen rubber strap isn't that desperately expensive and might be worth thinking about dependent on how happy you are with the rep strap

I have a mesh from wjean28 incomming, Also recommended on many places. The rep ocean racer strap is very nice, I have a black one from WI that i like very much. It looks very good on more than just the sosf Cost me $90 though.

Love mesh. I had a few skagens and if you are careful mesh looks nice and lasts.

Staib is the way to go for your SOH.....I've got mine on a Staib and couldn't be happier.....Infact the quality is so good I am already on a lookout for a Staib mesh for my UN Chrono.

 

Here's my SOH V2 on a Staib mesh

Looks beautiful Ill prob get the rubber from Rochest n Mary it will come with the super ocean and the mesh from stain its very unique that the Superocean had that mesh I tried one on A Gen at AD here is the pic.

Mesh and Superocean go together for sure ! Do you know if its 24mm ? I'd like to rotate that rubber one with my Super Avenger

[watch.aholic 538]

Yeah this one is 24mm

You guys think if I order the ocean racer with Deployment from Andrew or Mary and Rochest it would fit me I measured my wrist it's 8 inches, I just got my Breitling from Rochest Navitimer Chronograph n it fits fine.
