“I have quite a few watches and straps. I have had a few mesh straps. This one is by far the nicest of them all-- high quality, easy adjustment and great clasp. Fits my 8 inch wrist with room to spare. Another fine Barton product”
“Very nice band, seems extremely well made all for a good price! I recommend this highly! Don't waste money on "other" companies. Barton, another win. Thanks”
“I am concerned about the safety of the band. Firstly, it unsnaps very easily. I am fairly active and the prospect of the side clasp releases getting squeezed and releasing the band is very high. Secondly, last night, while asleep, the entire watch came off my wrist as a result of the smaller clasp coming ajar and releasing the entire band, resulting in the watch falling off entirely. What to do? I very much like the look of the band, but not at the expense of losing the watch in an irretrievable situation.”
“Not for everyone. This was a gift, but if I bought this, I would return it. I feel like Barton does a great job with quality and how these will feel day-to-day but this is a bit of a miss. I think the biggest mistake was that the clasp is similar to other metal bands where you slip your hand into it and adjust vs a "detached" two strap.
Why it's frustrating — if you have medium/smaller wrist, you essentially wrapping the metal mesh into itself and it feels SUPER weird when clasped against your skin (though feedback from others is that they can't tell but you definitely feel the dis-balance, so not ideal for long-term wear. If this was two distinct mesh straps (Leonard & Church watches did something like this), it would be perfect bc of the thickness of this mesh strap but right now, it just feels awkward”
“I purchased the Barton Mesh Milanese Band to 'dress up' some of my more casual watches. It's easy to change out, and adds a new look at an affordable price. I have bought four other Barton bands, and I have been well pleased with all of them.”
“Great band, good quality, easy to size, and fits well with my watches. Great service from Barton as this was an exchange for a doubled-up purchase of a leather band. Appreciate the service follow-through that enable me to get this replacement mesh bracelet.”
