When I had the standard, it was a little tight on the hole I preferred, and it is a little looser now on the corresponding hole on the small, so for me there was a slight improvement in that regard (but it's also an improvement in having less excess strap folded under). But I suspect that individual mileage may vary based on wrist size / hole preference as to whether or not a bracelet of a different size could provide a significant improvement in fit in that regard...

Hi all,

For those who purchased the OEM steel mesh bracelet, did it come with spring bars or did you have to source them separately?

Here's a shot with my new Bond 60th anniversary box......

Looking at this picture it seems some of the holes from the short and standard size band are aligned. On my OEM stainless steel standard length Milanese band used the third smallest hole so it seems on the short length version would use the third smallest as shown below with a red line.



Am I correct?

Here you go, Francisco. I matched them up for you. Also, to comment on another thread for you, these are for my 60th Anniversary Bond Seamaster, but I also have the NTTD. I have never had an issue with the visibility. Like any watch, there are times when it is hard to see it. There are some times when there are reflections from the domed crystal, but except for my Planet Ocean 2500, I have that with almost any watch.

This is very helpful, thanks a lot ! 😀

Will check with my local Boutique if they have either a NTTD or a 60th anniversary with the short length Milanese so that can try it as need to see the overall fit given the fact the clasp side is shorter as well (got the feeling will end up with the standard size, here how an OEM standard size Milanese looked on my wrist; shorer clasp side would probably put it way off on my roundish wrist)

Thanks for the comments on the NTTD dial visibility 👍, looking forward to adding one soon 😀

I’m looking for a used NTDD with regular length milanese. Have seen several nice choices but on the NATO. If someone here bought the shorter titanium milanese and is willing to sell the standard one for a
price let me know 😀

Have the standard steel milanese one which I bought for my Seamaster and as much as I love the look, keep fitting with the size, just in between holes. Will sell it if someone is interested. Worn a handful of times.

Pulled the trigger on an used NTTD (standard length bracelet), so no longer looking 😊
