    A British made 1960's milanese bracelet which fits 19mm lugs, tried it on my CK14755.
    Not sure if it was made for these cases but it looks cool imo.
    I have a 19mm brown suede ribbed tropic strap and 7912 for it but I might keep it on the milanese for a while.
    Comments gents?

    I like it, you should keep it on that strap for awhile.

    Hi Colin

    DS&S were (I have heard) available by special order....who knows / cares....it looks great :)

    These 19mm milanese mesh BCT'S are lovely quality and those curved ends fit very nicely indeed to straight luggers !

    Best - Neil

    Lovely vintage look. Any idea of the milanese reference, or where to find a similar one with curved end links?

    It is marked "Made in England" and DS&S", (Shackford and Sons), no ref number.

    I got it years ago on the bay, had no idea what it was for (thought it might be for a memomatic), just tucked it away.

    Neil (flame) or Tom (dickstar) might have one lying around, I'd ask them.

    Diver and mesh goes hand in hand. The CK14755 is a dressier diver while this bracelet is softer than those big bulky mesh bracelets. It is a perfect combo in my opinion. Congrats!!
