what are the other varients? helson got their mesh bracelets as well iirc... seems like the end links are rather loose, do mesh links tend to scratch/grind against the inner sides of the lugs?

and in terms of sizing, is die die must order the right length and fall within the 6 adjustment holes?

I'm not into mesh bracekets, but find it looking badass nice... thanks roo bro for sharing

I have 2 Omega mesh and Helson mesh for a short while, wrote a short comparison review between the two: http://jiehong.org/blog/2011/03/27/omeg ... ster-mesh/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

From the pics from Tungchoy, I bet they are totally similar as the Helson, since they are mostly likely sourced from Hong Kong.

As for the sizing, you have to refer to the site for the length, they have 2 sizes, a normal and extra short, so you need to measure before ordering.

For other bad ass mesh, I think I saw some other brands, from German but equally expensive.
