Do you even bracelet, Bro?
I most certainly prefer bracelets 99% of the time, so here are a handful of my bracelet’ed watches at the moment.
Unironically, the best bracelet here is the jubilee on the SKX. It’s light, extremely flexible, all the links articulate, and there are enough micro-adjust holes to get a good fit that can be tweaked in an emergency. The amount of micro-adjust holes on a bracelet should be equal to the length of a link, plus one, and yet so many brands mess this up *cough* Tudor *cough*.
The Diver 65 is a favorite as well. I prefer bracelets with a minimum of 4mm of taper, the 65 has 6, which is like 50% better. And unlike another brand *cough* Tudor *cough* the rivets on this are real, so get outta here with the whole faux-rivets thing.
Third place goes to the Aquis. For a reason I still don’t understand, many brands only articulate on every other pin of a bracelet, keeping the links as a rigid set of 3 on an oyster for example. Every link on the Aquis articulates, and it’s noticeable when it comes to comfort. I also see a good amount of micro brands doing this now, and I can’t wait for the other brands to catch up.
