So lately I have been hankering for a retro diver that's not a Seiko (I'm soon going to need a separate box just for Seiko!!), and I've decided I really want to try a mesh strap.
So, show me your mesh/watch combo's to whet my appetite!! The more retro the better, lol!! A PRS-50 'no rad' would be right up there for me, but keen to some others!

Liking that a very great deal, great bezel and a there is something that says quality about the crown. What's that mode called?Originally Posted by bogi
Squale Medium 30ATM
Nice watch, great quality, cool asymetric case ;D
Ok. I need to.find a new watch that suits a mesh and buy it. Seems a funny way round but I really want a strap like that
was going to say only a the ploplof for the win
but whats this hidden beauty that i have never seen the likes of before
please tell me more of this gem???

It looks like Seiko SKX007 modded, it looks great.
Some awesome looking pieces - thanks for the suggestions!
The Ploprofs look great, but sadly out of my price range!
The BP50 (and so PRS-50) are still up there as fave's for me, and the KonTiki Super. Really like the look of the Seiko mod, would love to see some more of that.
Another more realistic option for me would be the Accutron Snorkel - think they look great on mesh as well.
I owned that same model of Seiko Superior, which came on a rubber strap, but looks absolutely smashing on mesh. As a matter of fact, that mesh looks a lot like the bracelet I had on mine, which went with the watch when I sold it. For all I know, you may have gotten that watch from the guy I sold it toi'll play....

I'm with you, and that's precisely how I plan to do it.
Great photos gents. If I may: how are meshes with arm hair? Nothing angers me more than a bracelet that doubles as a hair removal tool.
No problem at all for me, they are solid, closed rings, so nothing to get your hair stuck into. Same goes for where the rings meet. I think I have hair enough to be able to tell you that:
The only hair pullers I know of are the old, folded links bracelets.
Cheers!
Also, lovely watch.
My Speedmaster auto on a staib mesh - sorry Bout the quality of photo but some of us do not have the equipment as other members! But hey it's all about the effort!
That prs3 just looks so right on a mesh. I never considered trying one when I had mine.

before the omega buckle coil broke
after the omega bukle coil broke and I slipped on an aftermarket seiko type buckle
I have to say that the omega mesh on the squale is the best match I found ever, this watch was born for a mesh!
I loved the mesh on the PloProf, I never got round to trying the rubber strap!
I think I like the mesh. Never worn one as always thought it would pinch. Might have to give one a try
Here are some.

Love the mesh on my 4.5, everyday watch, comfortable and never noticed a pulled hair:-
Yes Steve that was your 4.5, have given it a bit of a refresh and a nice new mesh.
Here's my Ploprof
Malc
SMP and SMPC on mesh
Here are some of mine chaps
Also have a baby Ploprof on Omega mesh which I love
Received this Omega style mesh from http://www.tungchoywatch.com/ yesterday after waiting a while for them to restock this particular model. Really pleased with the look and easily fits my wrist which was a concern with the Omega mesh. Surprised to see this dispatched from the UK, only ordered on boxing day and no import duties either
