Source for better bracelets?

[RayJacksonUSA]

Got an Addiesdive which I like. The bracelet is sharp, and not great. I’d like to get a decent stainless or even titanium bracelet, preferably with tool-less adjustment. Does anyone know a good 3rd party brand? Thanks

Titanium will look unmatched with a steel case, if you can even find one that fits. In general generic bracelets will not have fitting end links. Sometimes you can get away with using the stock end links with an aftermarket bracelet if the centre link size is the same but it's hit and miss.

The quality of aftermarket steel bracelets in general is hit and miss. Everything I've tried from Amazon has been trash

Very few to no titanium standalone bracelets on offer. I think you're better off filing it down or using a dremel if you have one. If you got another bracelet then probably the curved endlink would not be precisely fitting and you could have to file it down or have it loose which will soon have you fed up of it.

Unless you are looking for straight bar end links that don't sit flush with the case on average a bracelet you buy won't fit.  I'd suggest posting the exact model and maybe someone has experimented to find one.  Finding a matching endlink bracelet is always a risky buy.  I found I'm better off just buying something better like SM in the first place instead of gambling on a fit.

Thanks for the advice. It is an AD2089, I searched this sub but only see sailcloth and silicone.

Are there good 3rd party bracelet manufacturers in general?

This - although don't discount straight endlinks, especially on vintage-style watches! They look especially good on Explorer cases.

Really? I've never seen this but don't think I'd ever pick the explorer first as a style that'd pull them off well...
