    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 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.

    Great. Even better if you can get a better quality for 21 mm lug.

    Price is the issue.

    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...
