I wonder if you feel comfortable wearing certain brand, i mean comfortable wearing it all day and it doesnt bother you, usually steel bracelets cause me some discomfort if i wear them for long hours, i know each watch need to be adjusted but it comes to my mind if there is something in the designs or materials that could make certain brand more comfortable than others in your personal experiences. Maybe i make no sense or it is a silly question but im just asking maybe there is knowledge out there i dont know about.

Bracelets vary widely in terms of comfort, very hard to generalize. A really great bracelet can be extremely comfortable, a cheap bracelet much less so.

Fabric straps are probably the most comfortable, at least when dry. My most comfortable strap is an Erika’s Original MN, which looks kinda like a nylon nato strap but it is elastic and hugs the wrist gently. A decent nato strap is comfy too.

I haven’t personally found an extremely comfortable rubber strap but some people swear by them. Rubber handles being wet very well.

I’m enjoying vintage style Horween leather right now as the weather cools down, they feel soft and natural against my skin. In hot weather though they get clammy.

So the bottom line is I think comfort depends on a lot of variables, but if I had to pick just one type and comfort was the only consideration, I’d go MN style.
