Evening all,

Looking to buy a stainless steel bracelet - 22mm / brushed silver

Has anybody used WatchGecko or The Strap Shop before? Product quality acceptable?

Any recommendations for other shops?


Under consideration:

https://www.thestrapshop.co.uk/collections/stainle...


Many thanks for any assistance.

I've used watchgeko for s/s oyster bracelet for my Tudor black bay. Bought the straight end link version.

Generally a good finish and good watch strap. Felt a little light compared to Omega OEM s/s strap I compared it to. The clasps seem solid enough, watch hasn't fallen off my wrist yet. Again, clasp not quite as high quality as OEM omega straps and doesn't feel as nice to use.

For about £50 I feel that it's pretty good and would certainly last a while. Nice touch from the company is that the watch comes with a nice little case and a very handy cloth.

Would recommend if you're wanting a decent strap for a half decent price. Just dont expect OEM Quality at this price point.

They have a good selection of SS as well.

I bought an oyster style one from watch gecko and its great however the rounded end links don't fit that well on closer inspection on my Omega Planet ocean. Its well made though and for that price (around £50) i'm pleased.

Having said all that I would still prefer an original Omega one but at around £600 it may be a while.

If anyone out there has one (20mm) I may be interested at a reasonable price of course!
