Has anyone had one of these:

or can recommend an alternative?

Yes, wearing it today as it happens. No issues with the quality or comfort very well finished, ive got a couple of Staibs which are excellent but telling them apart from the watchgecko defeats me.

Out of interest, what makes it worth £200?

I have loads of mesh bracelets that work brilliantly and cost a fraction of that. I suppose Made in Germany will make a difference.

The only trouble with mesh bracelets is that they don’t taper.

However, MILTAT / Strapcode do one that does and it’s less than half the price of the staib.

I comment on how the two compare but I really like the MILTAT.

I’ve tried my Chronoswiss on a mesh from Geckota…



Not the same model, but good quality imho.

I don't know that it is...hence, partly, why I started the thread.

Thanks, everyone, for the responses. I think I'm gonna go with something considerably cheaper than the one I initially posted and see how it goes. Not had a mesh before, so I might not get on with it anyway.

Worth having a look at Rowi & Vollmer mesh bracelets.

Much prefer mesh without end pieces.

Thanks again everyone.

I ended up getting this one:

as I decided I wanted a smallish, fairly discreet clasp.

Will post a pic when I get it onto the watch.

...and here it is attached to one of Eddie's finest!

It looks exactly like the Stowa, but pricier.

Good spot, though the saving might vanish if you get hit with duty as well as shipping.

Quite pleased with the one I got instead, which was under £50 delivered.

Stowa, watchgecko, and similar probably all made by Staib. Their retail site is https://www.bracelets-for-watches.com/en
