I take it you didn't see my 5513 experiment inspired by the Tudor 7923?
'Taste' is a personal thing - I'll not question yours as long as you reciprocate
Yes, I saw your experiment; also saw the tudor only watch and commented thus:

I don't like it, I'm afraid. The lug gap is almost always unattractive (it can be acceptable on some mesh bracelets, but for the most part, it simply looks unfinished), and I don't really like that style of bracelet.

I like it! Straight end links don't bother me and I think it suits the watch well!

It seems that those who don't like lug gaps have rather strong feelings about it (based on other threads including Tudor ranger ones I've seen). Although for me it is precisely the unfinished, rough look that draws me to such combinations (which to my eyes lend it a utilitarian air).

For some reason I don't really like my Speedy on the stock bracelet but I'm not sure why. I tend to stick with leather or the Omega mesh.

I like the look of the bracelet, but I too am not fond of the lug gaps.
