UPDATE: Well, given my impatient ass, at least for now, I put the original bracelet back on.
The challenge is the 21mm lug width. Neither Forstner or Staib has a mesh option for me. After looking at it though, I do like the polished / brushed bracelet finish.
Appreciate the input from everyone!
We've recently talked about the warmer weather coming. That said, I want to swap out the strap shown for a bracelet. I do have the OEM / Omega bracelet, but it's kind of boring.
So, who makes the best mesh bracelet? Two things: 1) The lugs are 21mm. 2) I have an (almost) 8" wrist. Some call that 'extra long.'
Last, I don't want to spend thousands. But I don't want to go on the cheap either.
Please let me know. Much appreciated!

I don’t know anything about mesh bracelets but that dial is insane 😎
Thanks much, Clayton. It hooked me fast the moment I saw it.
Accept no substitute:
Forstner Komfit!

Forstner Komfit, seconded. 👍🏻
Staib tapered mesh.
Got both & recommend both
Thanks, guys. I knew of the Forstner. But little to nothing about the Staib. Never owned a mesh bracelet. Much appreciated!
Best mesh I’ve ever tried is Staib.
That’s an awesome watch, don’t see it often (Seamaster GMT).
You might consider Strapcode/MilTat mesh bracelet. It's tapered, if you like that.

Very cool. Thanks much! I wasn't finding 21mm until this.
Of course, my luck, it is 'Unavailable' right now. The 21 is like hens' teeth.

Whoa! I could have sworn it was in stock when I shared the link with you.
You can try buying it direct from Strapcode's website. From what I can tell, the 21mm seems to be in stock there.
