Hey that looks brilliant!! Did you fit it yourself, is it easy to do? Any more pics?
This might be just what I was looking for for going out on the boats and down by the beach.
Thanks, very pleased!This might be just what I was looking for for going out on the boats and down by the beach.

Very easy to change as I had the watch on a perlon already.
Took two minutes and just the use of a fingernail - had no tools with me.
If you have your watch on the original bracelet you will need a spring bar tool to take that off, but it's a very quick and easy job.
The new combo has already been in the pool, heading to the beach later today....
They're not mine (hence the googled images note). I have a shark mesh bracelet on an old Russian diver, but it was only a cheap one from ebay. I wouldn't put my one on a decent watch as it could scratch the inside of the lugs, however I am sure a more expensive one would be better finished.
I think a nice heavy mesh adds a rugged look to a watch and it is very comfortable. You might need thicker springbars since you can see them through the end loops of the mesh.

Not that I was thinking about selling my BLNR but thought I'd post as my girlfriend bought me an Everest band for Christmas. Initially she bought the version that used the Rolex end links and glidelock but I wasn't keen - she returned it to Everest in the US who "upgraded" to the tang buckle and shipped back to the UK for no additional charge.
They also included a hand written note, I really can't fault their product or customer service

That really is lovely. Much nicer than the SS bracelet imo. They also included a hand written note, I really can't fault their product or customer service
