|  Just received this today from William Jean in Canada. MAN 'O' MAN, does it take forever to get something mailed from CANADA!!!!!!!! 3 weeks and 1 day! My first impressions are: it's lighter than I expected : the color of the mesh is off from any SS watch that I own.....maybe it's just brighter but I think it is lighter. : I do like the open weave design : the price was right | |

| What a combination John !  This mesh bracelet looks as though it could have come with the watch right from the factory. It's nice and wide, and matches the size of the case EXTREMELY well. Really does fit in nicely !  What's interesting too, is how the mesh seems to play off of those lines, or hash marks which are going around that GREAT bezel on your Accutron ! ..Excellent looking mesh sir !..Enjoy it, and congrats !!! ____________________________________  | |

| John, In the photo it looks perfect on that watch. I really need to pick up a few mesh myself, I am just worried they will be to short. Enjoy!!! ____________________________________ Later, Gary Remember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

This bracelet is short Gary. On William Jeans site, he states it is 160mm and that it is good for 7.25 - 7.75" wrists. I have a 7.5" wrist and it just fits me with a hair to spare and I can't micro adjust it any longer.......it's on the last hole. Thanks Alan, Mark Trevor and Gary! | |

| Very cool, definitely like the open mesh/non-endlink features more than the other style. Takes the watch to another level. |

| I'm of a different opinion. While I like that watch, I don't think it looks good on that mesh. Perhaps it is all the high polish.
Not knocking your match up, as it is fun to experiment. | |
