Love watching your channel. Cool bracelets. Few years ago, after seeing your super compressor video, I have bought vintage super compressor. Thanks for good informations!
I find it interesting that it seems milled scissor-style swing arms were not used on vintage watch braclets. It seems they all had stamped swingarms. It interesting to see these on the fly adjustments. Some of these are better then the modern ratcheting adjustments that are found in many modern divers. Happy Holidays
What a great collection you got there. At 15:05 some Seiko watches from the 70s ( Type II series has at least one ) have the same case finishing at this bracelet, and would be a perfect match. Our contemporary design pale to compare to the 70s crazyness and creativity. And for the most part, in build quality too.
I've been wearing a stretch bracelet with a plate for engraving. I didn't engrave it because its my personal watch. Nonetheless I've enjoyed this bracelet and wear all day including when I sleep. I only take it off when I shower
I love the third one but I can't find them because I can't find the name of the band style, if you have a 20mm gold plated one in decent condition, is be very interested in buying it
Do you know if the second type of extensible can be fixed? I have one that came with a timex and in the extensible part that form an X, it is loose and cannot be used.
It really comes down to being comfortable with needle nose pliers to adjust the tension/metal. Thankfully, these types of bracelets are still pretty cheap, so you should be able to get a similar one on eBay.
@@InterestingWatches sadly, the watch world has caught on to these and the prices have gone through the roof! I love them, especially the (W) German made ones. Excellent video!

I put some of these on my Casio Royales, and they look perfect lmao

Do people actually throw these away??
from where did you purchase that German mesh bracelet?
a few years ago from eBay.

Sorry, I don’t, but an eBay saved search for 20mm vintage bracelet should get you what you want sooner or later.

Hi,
Would you consider selling the german mesh?
Thanks!!
Sorry, I’ve been using it lately. They appear on eBay every once and a while.
