Agreed, way better than the milanese and second only to the UncleSeiko Ti bracelet.
My pref is Milanese but in Ti, not the SS as it comes from VSF. Uncle Ti bracelets on NTTD don't do much for me sorry, although I own 2 of his SS for my Speedy.

Ok, this is unbelievably stunning...... I have to know which factory and separately which strap is this?!?

**Edit the picture 2-3 posts above. Apparently, I'm an idiot who doesn't know how to quote or reply.

I finally got to try this on last week. My local AD is now stocking Omega and they've got pretty much every reference currently available.

Unfortunately, this is one of those times when I love the look of something from a distance, but it doesn't grab me when I put it on. It's disappointing, but I really liked the new black dial SM 300 with the black rubber band!

Excuse my ignorance if this was perviously answered in the last 300+ pages but did VSF or any other factory produce a mesh bracelet that is the smaller sized variant of the band that omega sells?

Small wrist gang makes the normal mesh it comes with look a bit rediculous with the gap in the bracelet. If not. ill just keep rocking it as is but I figured maybe someone had a lead on it outside of going gen. SS or Ti doesn't matter.
No.

For those keen to get their S/S NTD mesh bracelets closer to the look and feel of Ti - hydrochloric acid batch should get you close, very close.
1:3 ratio, acid-to-water, 20 min bath.

Satisfied with the result.
NTTD "Ti" on the left, standard high-quality S/S Omega Milanese on the right:



No contest, really. The one thing tat stands out on the stock S/S bracelet is the shiny and much lighter end link bar. This has now been taken care of too.

Edit: what I meant by standard Milanesse S/S is the one you can get from Aliexpress, not the Omega gen. It cost me about $25 and it's great fit, finish and quality.

I received few messages re hydrochloric acid - this can be sourced from your hardware store, it's usually used to clean concrete and brick work but is known to be used by furniture makers for dulling and etching metals, it will dull but not damage S/S, however it is highly corrosive and protection should be always worn, gloves, glasses etc when working with it - so please approach it with care and full attention.

NTTD is a beautiful watch, but the cloudy and exagerated convex crystal is killing the watch IMO.

No, not cloudy at all.
It's actually one of the crispiest sapphires I owned.
Convex effect is also small and adds that vintage touch to the watch. It's actually less pronounced tan on my gen Speedy.

Looks like the new addition is the titanium mesh bracelet only, everything else iie the case and movement is as per the v4. Wasn’t the the v4 case prone to the crown threading stripping?

Yup. And it doesn't take a lot to strip it...
