The mesh bracelet on Bambino looks great. Can't wait to order one when you bring it to the website.
I’ve worn mesh straps and I like the look and am not bothered at all with the overlap under the upper mesh. I also like the curved spring and don’t mind the open exposure up near the watch. $50.00 sounds like a fair price. Those are my thoughts. Hope it works out for you, Marc.

Looks great with the silver dial and I assume it will look just as good with most versions of the bambino. I don’t really like it with the cream dial. So now I guess I’ll just have to get another version of the bambino and a mesh bracelet.

I'm not a huge Bambino fan but that mesh bracelet is a winner, especially on the white dial. Can't beat the price, either.

This is a great idea, Mark! So I have a bambino version four, if I had one of the others I would buy this bracelet in a heartbeat. I think you’ll sell them like hotcakes.👍
Really nice idea!
Just bought one of these for a Gen 2 v3 gray dial. Outstanding.
Looks very nice, and elevates the look

Another one sold! I have a black Bambino “Bauhaus” (Gen. 2 Ver. 3) incoming, and this mesh bracelet should really enhances its clean, modernist aesthetic. I especially like that it’s infinitely adjustable, which should keep it comfortable even if my wrist swells.
Hi Mark. Damn good looking mesh. Make the classic look on the Bambino look even more classic. Please take them in, and hopefully I can have 2pcs shipped to Denmark, for my Bambino SS. Keep up the good work.
I might now look at getting the Bambino BECAUSE of the mesh bracelet. Well done Marc!

That's a great combination with the Bambino both being a silver color. For a dress watch, the mesh is very nice. I really like it. I think our taste changes as we age. I used to dislike metal bracelets on dress watches.

I love mesh bracelets in general and I think this is a great option for the Bambino. If I owned one I would buy it. I have a similar mesh bracelet for my 1978 Bulova Clipper with hooded lugs and it looks great since the lugs hide the pin bar. I think it's funny that you have to explain the locking adjustable clasp since virtually all watches from the 80's/90's had a bracelet like this including my Seiko quartz and Timex digital watches. Very nostalgic.

Marc, I had several Skagens with mesh bracelets that were fine for 24/7 comfortable wear. I recently replaced my Hemel watch that came with stiff black nylon straps with a Strapcode brushed fine mesh bracelet. Big improvement in comfort and appearance for about $45. @@islandwatch

I wasn't sure but I think they are way better than the sub-par strap included. The over the top point here is the price. For only 50 bones it is a great investment for the elegance of the Bamboo. Bamboo owners should be made aware. Very nice looking product.

Though I am not a fan ot this BAMBINO'S version, I think that it looks great. Many watches in the 70's and 80's had the same kind of clasp. Allowing a precise adjustment of the bracelet's length.

I wouldn’t normally post a negative comment about a product, but since you asked 😀. I’m not a fan of mesh bracelets anyway, and I definitely don’t like them on the Bambino. I’ve got mine on a nice brown Hadley Roma strap. But it sounds like others do like them, so I wish you lots of luck with these. I look forward to my next LIW purchase.

Really like that white dial on gen 1, not sure why they went with the greenish tint on the gen 2
I just put this on my Seiko Flightmaster. I do also have a Bambino that this will go on too...
