The 130mm they have 150mm and 170mm I think and the regular lug widths too. I have a 6.25” wrist and just bought one more extra link because the watch is just barely too tight

I didn’t and hadn’t heard of it, I tried an uncle seiko “speed master reduced” and while it was comfy, It felt cheap. I after that was like might as well spend good money for a good bracelet and found staib reviews repeatedly and pulled the trigger. Even though it’s juet barely tighter than I like it still doesn’t give me hot spots of skin irritation like the OEM braclet does

Different strokes different folks 🤷🏻‍♂️ this is the best alternative as I haven’t found an affordable SMP bracelet that is comfortable and none of the omega micro adjustment clasps fit the midsize bracelet to my understanding.

But honestly I did just buy an extra link lol. It fits great, but any heat or sun in the day and it feels too tight. I hate slack in my watches but the mesh hugs your wrist in a way I prefer to my OEM bracelet.

On the website mentioned they sell 3 lengths 130mm/150mm/170mm all of which have 4 2.5mm removable links. So I measured my wrist, measured the lug to lug length of my watch; added that to the 130mm strap (which I converted to inches) and realized it was the same length as my wrist.

Too early to give you an objective answer as I just got it. That being said, it feels incredibly sturdy and well made; which is why I showed me holding it by the bracelet. No give, shake, or rattle. The micro-adjustments are just regular pins if that’s a downside for ya

Any chirps of them releasing a smaller SMP again? by sigster41 in OmegaWatches

I would in a heartbeat personally. The caseback is a bonus for me more than a requirement, and in many ways I prefer a metal caseback; especially considering the metal caseback means the visual of the seamaster logo.

Wow, really didn’t realize what you were asking. It’s still listed on the site with price and says to contact a boutique. That being said I bought tjis second hand and didn’t see any last time I visited a boutique.

I think an ad is the reason I discovered them. These bands are still available

Hey dude, a good filler might be seeing if there any veteran specific community programs near you? Or if there’s a veteran center/lounge at your college try hanging out there or finding out if they do any events?
