If anyone has a 42mm 5 bead they want to sell please let me know. Would rather not wait 2 weeks for one from China on Amazon.

If you're still looking for one, I posted mine on page 11 of this thread. I haven't used it since I got my Link bracelet. For your reference:

I also got the 5 bead Hoco from eBay ($45). I like it but after finally getting the Link Bracelet, it's hard to go back. Since I don't plan on using it, I might as well just sell it. It was only used for a few hours. $39 PayPal gift, shipped (fast, from USA).

Those with the 3 bead and 5 bead - is the 3 bead heavier orhave all around higher quality? I have the 5 bead and I'm just not thrilled with the band.

Anybody want to buy my 5 bead just message me. I will give you a good price, thanks.

The three bead definitely has more heft since it a bit wider than the five bead. I like both but the three bead is more substantial, for sure.

Just got mine today, will post a pic tomorrow after I size it.
Here are some pics. I really love the black Hoco steel bracelet for my 42mm SGS. It's really close to being gun metal than black, and it seems like it's almost a perfect match for the SGS. I would day it's a tinge darker than the aluminum of the SGS, BUT, you'd really have to examine it to tell a difference in color. I'm glad I got this for $35 way back on June 2nd (got it June 24th from China), but would gladly pay $55. My pics don't do it justice. Any blotches you see on the second pic are just reflections of light.

I don't own a SGS but it does look much better than the regular Sport Watch with silver HOCO band (y)

There's someone I think in the third party band/straps or the show off your watch thread that is wearing one.

I ordered a 3 bead HOCO, and then flipped the SG ASW before it arrived, gave the band to a friend, he's pretty happy :)

Thanks Jmona,
But its no HOCO. You have to look for "Eichmüller"
That's great that you can clarify that because no one has had any luck finding a black or space gray Hoco and yours is the closest I've seen so I thought to mention it here! LOL
Sorry I quoted your post here but I thought to save you the double trouble. Btw your watch looks fanfriggintastic man!
