“Material quality is good.
But the clasp, the clasp is utterly awful. No chance of quickly popping it on or adjusting it. It's this entire long winded, uncomfortable, contorted process. Another review here said you need three arms to use it - and they're quite right. I truly believe that even with someone putting it on for me, it would be a task.
If you compare it to other mesh clasp designs, you'll see they've taken a different approach here, and they are wrong.
It makes the product utterly pointless.”
Thanks for your feedback Andrew. The functionality of the clasp can be a little fiddly at times. Your feedback on this issue is appreciated and will be passed on to Staib.
“Good quality, well built the clasp is absolutely horrendous, you need three arms to put it on and I almost dropped my watch a couple of times taking it off.”
“Really impressed with this bracelet, excellent quality, amazing value for money. Clasp is a little fiddly but fine once you get the hang of it and allows quick and easy adjustment without tools. I would have preferred a brushed finish myself, so if one becomes available I'd certainly have another.”
“This Staib bracelet is fantastic on my Omega SMP300. WOW! I had been searching for an appropriate, high quality bracelet for a long time, before finding this one. It is a WINNER. The ONLY caveat, is that someone has to help me put it on, since it's hard to do with one hand.”
“Improved the look of my Seiko Save the Ocean enormously. The only reason for dropping 1 star is that the clasp came undone whilst wering it once and the watch almost fell off, however it caught on the edges and stopped sufficently for me to save it. Still a great strap but I'm just a little more aware of not catching it on anything.”
Wicked photo Brian! Thanks for sharing. Your feedback is very valuable to us and we will pass it on to Staib. The clasp on this strap does not have the top locking piece that you see on other mesh bracelets. This would mean that it can be more prone to coming undone if caught on something. The best advice we can offer is to give the clasp a once over when you put it on your wrist to ensure that it has been fastened up and engaged fully before going out and about. Hope this help.
“I bought this mesh strap for my Omega SMP 2254 and I confirm that the bracelet is top quality. This is my first Staib bracelet and it won’t be the last. The best on the market I would say and for the price/quality you really can’t go wrong. I’m pleased the 20mm/20mm was out of stock because the 18mm taper on the 20mm strap I purchased is perfect. Not many mesh straps taper. The quick release is an added bonus. Also no need for any adjustments as you simply push it through the clasp and snap shut when you’ve found the correct length. I’m absolutely delighted with this purchase, Watch Obsession service also excellent as always. A benchmark for customer service.”
