Man, that Bali Hai was gorgeous! Well, Ian, I got the Mesh put on today and it fit PERFECTLY. I'm convinced the bracelet is really for the small wristed . And my 6 3/4 was 2 notches from the longest hole. Cinderella found her glass slipper! In the future, I may be looking for an 18mm for my Reduced Speedy, or 20mm for a Marathon Sar. Any pictures of those around, guys?. If anyone has a picture of the LM-2 or SAR on an Omega Mesh, please post them. Thanks again, Ian!!

WOW Darkman face4.gif!! That looks fabulous! Not too much gap between the lug and the watch case - perfect! You wear your bracelet the same way I do - with the clasp at 12 and the loop at 6. I find that this makes it easier for me to pop the loop into the clasp when I "buckle up". The Omega symbol is therefore technically upside down when you look under your wrist to see the clasp - but you know what - I reckon it is more comfortable that way, and makes it easier to get off at the end of the day! Others will disagree - but I reckon we got it right! Silas - you're such a gentleman - thank you again ;). I understand that Omega make 20, 22 and 24mm mesh bracelets only, so no 18mm from them - but I am sure that I can call on the AD in future to get a similar deal for another 20mm version whenever you are ready. Just let me know and I will ask! And I am really happy that the setup on your watch makes it fit within the micro adjustment on the standard clasp with no removal of mesh bits. Just terrific! hand6.gif ! Oh - forgot to ask - what watch did it go onto? As for pics of the Marathon watches, I have not seen any at all, Silas, but I will try to do some searching and see if I can trawl one up on the fora somewhere. I will be busy writing monumental thoughts today - with a little help from my lagniappe ;). Go Cinderella! Cheers and please keep the pics coming - this is more fun than Christmas!

:D Thanks. Yeah, I saw that most people wear them the other way, so this might be "backwards", but it seemed more comfortable to me; I'm used to having the buckle of a strap on the top side of the watch.

Absolutely right, mate. And if you are right handed - you will also find that it is much easier to remove this way, too :D I have many of these bracelets and I agree with you 100%. I find that I fumble with the clasp too much when it is on the other way around! There is no "must do" etiquette with Omega bracelets! Out of interest, I have even seen photographs of Omega Ploprofs in the Omega Museum, and Omega themselves have put some Isofrane (rubber) straps on upside down with the ribs (which should be on the wrist) on the outside! You can't "get it wrong", Darkman - you have done what feels best for you - and that is exactly what we should all do!! Your BH looks BRILLIANT in this combo! Cheers again! IanM hand6.gif

FAB-U-LOUS! I have not seen too many pics of the PO 45.5 on mesh out there - would love to see more if you have taken any! With Summer coming for you guys in the US of A, I think you will also soon experience the other wonder of mesh - natural airconditioning for the wrist... :) Cheers O - IMHO it is the ultimate expression of cool10.gif in a dive watch - and a perfect fit for your beautiful PO. Congratulations! Keep the pics coming guys! I am so pleased that you like them! IanM hand6.gif

I got a chance to fit my Omega mesh to one of my vintage chronos today to check out the fit and feel. I plan to get a Speedy Moonwatch when the right one jups out at me. This is the first time I buy a strap before the watch! The fit is perfect, at maximum length. The feel is very comfortable and soft on the wrist. In short - perfect!woohoo.gif Ian, thanks for offering this deal to fellow 3T'ers. Much appreciated! Attachment: 17062009064 (640 x ratio).jpg (Downloaded 29 times)

Hi again Graham! I know you added the mesh to this watch just to check the fit, but your vintage chrono looks bl**dy great on mesh anyway! perfect.gif Thanks for all the kind words, fellas! I enjoyed facilitating! And if I get a sniff of any more deals from my ex-AD here, or anyone else - you can rest assured that I will happily do the same again. IanMhand6.gif
