    Shark Mesh Bracelet for a Shark Diver- to be or not to be ?

    Having become overcome by SSMBAS [ Severe Shark Mesh Bracelet Aquisition Syndrome ] for my Helson Shark Diver I figured I'd mosy on over to the Helson site to order one. Not so fast!
    I searched the site and while it appears you can order one as an add-on to ordering a Buccaneer, it apears it isn't offered as a stand alone item. Has anyone recently purchased a Shark Mesh bracelet from Helson directly ? if not which shark mesh bracelet are you using presently.
    Posted pictures welcome!!

    There are other sellers of the same basic mesh but you can email Peter at Helson and ask about it.

    Usually takes a little bit as not everyone is on the same timezone as you are. Peter is really good at answering his emails.

    Check watchrecon.com

    You can see them pop up on there from time to time.

    The last time I spoke with Peter, he only sells the loose end Shark Mesh this days, he used to carry the one with the bracelet incorporated in it, like the ones that came with the Buccaneer GMT or the Squale Atmos with the fixed ends which I own.
    I find the loose mesh to be more comfortable compared to the other which is more stiff and do not really conform to the wrist. Just my opinion. Good Luck.

    The Tortuga mesh fits the shark diver also. He sells them seperate, if you email him.

    This is EACTLY the same kind that came with my Squale. It just wont let your watch sit properly on the wrist!

    This is the one I'm looking for this one, preferably from a US seller.
    Have found a few at the Bay from Hong Kong...
