Forstner Komfit Thin as a Dime Stainless Steel Watch Bracelet
Inspired by one of Forstner's earliest Komfit designs.
The Forstner Thin as a Dime Komfit revives one of the earliest bracelets to feature the patented slide-band technology that would become the Komfit. Inspired by Forstner's Military Type design of the late 1930s, it combines exceptional flexibility, continuous adjustability, and distinctive Art Deco styling in a bracelet that's as elegant today as it was nearly a century ago.
Material & feel
The Thin as a Dime Komfit is distinguished by its horizontal slat design, giving the bracelet a refined Art Deco appearance that pairs equally well with vintage-inspired and contemporary watches. Available in brushed or polished finishes, it offers a distinctive alternative to traditional mesh bracelets.
Beneath the decorative slats, a finely woven stainless steel mesh provides exceptional flexibility and everyday comfort while helping prevent hair pulling. The bracelet also features beautifully finished spring-loaded end pieces and the signature forward-facing Komfit clasp for secure, continuously adjustable wear.

Great product - obviously well made, classic heritage design. Comfortable and great
Looking. Currently on an omega aqua terra, will swap to Speedmaster soon.
After purchasing a Buzz Rickson A-11, I was hoping to find a quality vintage styled bracelet to pair with the watch. The Forstner Thin as a Dime military bracelet works perfectly with the A-11's case and is a little more robust than other A-11 bracelet options, like the Bonklip.
Excellent service! Fast shipping. Very well-made, high quality, and classy. Comes with all spring-loaded band rods.
Definitely not worth $132 or whatever it is. Pretty poor quality for the price. Hard as all get out to get on the wrist. I thought I would be all cool like the astronauts, what a waste. Can’t return after installing either. If you want to struggle every time you put the watch on have at it.
Thanks for the feedback. The Komfit has a different fastening system than standard bracelets, which can take a bit of getting used to and may feel stiff or awkward at first. Once adjusted, it’s designed to allow fine sizing and a secure fit, but the initial setup can be less intuitive if you’re used to traditional clasps. We appreciate you sharing your experience.
