Very well narrated. Professional in scope and content as we have come to expect. Excellence is standard.

I can live with any modern bracelet but if the clasp doesn’t have easy on the fly adjustment it won’t be in my watch case!

Great discussion. A bracelet can make or break a sport watch. Personally, I'm a fan of Seiko's Marinemaster level bracelet clasps. Yes, a bit basic and stamped, but the adjustment is large and quick and they are very sturdy, reliable and don't jam in the field and they work on your wrist. Rolex are finer but a bit fussy (about a million small springs!) and the dive extension on the Sea Dweller is crude and bulky. Not a fan of the Deep Sea's extension either. Omega's best are very good - as well machined as Rolex, very secure and reasonably adjustable. I prefer some micro adjustment, but the bracelet should fit with link removal.

Excellent overview on bracelets! Thank you for posting.

I find your podcast are fine especially that they’re complimented with photos or/and pictures. The content is much more important than the dynamics of show & tell👍

@neil4701 Год назад

We hear a lot about collar & pins vs. split pins vs. screw pins etc., but don't these methods only apply to the removable links? How are the non-removable links held together? Presumably with some sort of fixed pin. You generally can't see the end of the pin (no holes in the sides on the non-removable links), so there is no obvious way to tell.

Enjoyable and informative. Thanks Armand.

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is my favorite metal WATCH and BRACELET. I love those octagonal cases and that stunning design.

@blainecole5452 4 года назад

No mention of mesh or milanese style bracelets?

excellent video, don’t listen to the haters! Thank you for all this valuable perspective / info, really appreciate it ⏰

The speedy moon watch bracket felt very cheap in my opinion and actually makes the watch feel like it should cost less

@paulleigh7792 4 года назад

I was very unimpressed with a pre owned, though pristine Rolex Daytona I examined (at the usual highly inflated price) for this very reason. The bracelet was very jangly and the perception was cheap!

@rzezniqq 4 года назад

And the locking mechanism is a piece of fuc#ing wire. What a joke. I know I have one.

@stevefox8605 4 года назад

Armand, I'm seriously considering a Tudor North Flag, obviously the integral bracelet is a major factor in the design and you have experience of it, so my question is this- is the bracelet of good durable & comfortable quality? Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
