Shark Mesh on a Rolex
Hi guys,
Has anyone done a shark mesh on Rolex. If so, let's see some pics and comments. I posted one but it is not mine, found it on google. |

I tried it before. Never really like the look. I think mesh looks better on a PO than a sub

I've got a shark mesh strap and have worn it on my Speedy. But never really liked it and it's now just languishing in a drawer even though the idea and look of the strap itself really appeals to me I just prefer leather or bracelets.

I would wear it. Occasionally that is. But I like the look.

While that "look" seems natural for chain mail, I think it's hideous as a watch band. Just my 0.02 worth.

I like the look of the sharkmesh on the Omega speedmaster watches...I don't care for this look on a Rolex...

I like the look. Got any wrist shots for a better evaluation?

Mesh looks nice on the Breitling SOH and SOH Chrono, but not the right look with a Rolex I'm afraid (imo)

Like the shark but don't think is really goes with a sub. I wish it went with a SS sports model as I would put one on my 16710 but don't think so.

Looks kind of cool although not my favorite. I still appreciate mixing it up and would give it some wrist time... Just makes it that much better when you go back to te oyster!!
