The fact that you stood up for an unpopular opinion deserves a like! Also, I really like the look of the mesh bracelet so thanks for pointing out it's cons. Fortunately, that's easily replaceable for a price. Great honest review!
Damn, i was gonna get this watch until you mentioned that your wrist size the same size as mine lmao. Now i gotta rethink about it hahaha. I hope Uncle Straps makes a bracelet for this model in the future! Do update us if you are getting a new bracelet.
I had ordered a strap von Staib but it just wasnt the same. The bracelet on the omega is so damn beautiful that i just got used to it. After a while of wearing its still far from comfortable, but its way better than then the first time i got the watch. If i were you i would give it a try and maybe also try on the shorter sized one. But i think the overall aesthetics is worth the pain:)
I have a Bond 60th with the same bracelet, on the same hole as you and do not have that huge gap. There is a little bit but not noticeable. I did however, "massage" the bracelet around the holes so it would be more pliable. Also, I would check to make sure all the stickers were removed from the bracelet. When I tried it on at the boutique, I almost passed because it was so stiff and didn't realize the stickers were still on the inside. I hope this helps as the bracelet is actually one of my favorite features of these watches. Maybe I just got lucky?
Thanks for the tipp. Well, the bracelet wears a little bit better over time but its still far from comfortable. But i have to admit its so damn beautiful that i dont want to use any aftermarket Straps. Maybe over time it will soften more up.
@WatchDjanko I'm right there with you! A few people have suggested straps or even the rubber but I refuse. The bracelet is 75% of the reason I bought it. Give it time, it will fit better. Congrats and enjoy!
I have bought an third party mesh and i didnt liked the look of it, so after all i sticked to the oem mesh and its still not comfortable but i have get used to it. Maybe i will try on the shorter one when im close to an omega boutique but for now i dont want to spend 870 Euro for a new bracelet and im also not that sure if it will fix the problem. Overall: you get used to it if you can look over that "loop" in the bracelet. I like the asthetics of the bracelet and right now asthetics wins over comfort. Greetings❤
Really interested in these, but you’re putting me off with the mesh hate. Would really like to know how the small mesh bracelet would fit on you. I have a 6.5” wrist so would definitely try the small bracelet.

If i were you i would give it a try and maybe also try on the shorter sized one. But i think the overall aesthetics is worth the pain. Also you have to consider, that your wrist is a little bit smaller, so you can probably use the second last hole and maybe get a better fit. Or try on the shorter bracelet.
Omega makes a small size of the mesh! Try that out! It helped me a lot when I tried both sizes in the AD When you buy the watch you can request for them to swap out the stock (medium) for the small length bracelet
@WatchDjanko and then give us an update on that please - I really enjoyed your review since I'm debating between a Speedmaster and the new Seamaster you showed and the Mesh comfort is also holding me back. Haven't tried it out myself yet though.

Also: im expecting the white dial speedmaster moonwatch in the coming weeks and i will make a video about the watch. Im also considering in buying the speedmaster first omega in space. I will update my experience. Greetings
@WatchDjanko Awesome, looking forward to that. Und hätte ich gewusst, dass das Video eh auch auf Deutsch da ist, hätte ich zum richtigen kommentiert. Cheers!
Haha, ja ich mache bis auf die Shorts immer zwei Videos (die Sprache steht immer in Klammern dahinter). Ich hatte mal überlegt, ob ich aufgrund des Mehraufwands nur noch Videos in Englisch mache, aber ich habe gemerkt, dass viele Menschen von den deutschen Videos profitieren und umgekehrt, weswegen ich das so fortführen werde. Ich versuche mit der Zeit auch meine Videos zu verbessern (und natürlich mein Englisch 😉). Grüße
Shame you didn't get the smaller bracelet when you bought the watch. The AD really should have made you aware of this option. The bracelet will wear in too, but you need the smaller size for sure.

Great honest review!
Thank you very much for your positive feedback! Yeah, im already looking for a Mesh braclet from Staib as a replacement.
@WatchDjankocheck out arroway mesh. It’s amazing

Good review 👍🏻

Very good review, the bracelet is also holding me back. Let me know when you get to try the smaller size bracelet. thanks

Thanks for the top! Maybe i should give it a try and visit the omega Boutique.
