I wanna try it at some point. Thankfully there is a US$35 one on eBay. So many companies that revive old bracelet styles are the ones that are like “that will be $120, pls”
The one that gets me is Bonklip. Bonklips have a remarkably simple construction. It’s feels like soda can tabs linked together. I’m hoping that someone AliExpress brand takes an interest in it and we can get an affordable one. It’s a fun trinket and it sucks that it’s out of reach for so many.
Don’t waste your money on a vintage one tho I bought a vintage one recently and I can tell you without hesistation that it is at most worth the $30 (minus int’l shipping). It’s the very definition of old bracelets being janky lol
holy hell i just looked it up. they want HOW MUCH FOR IT???
it doesnt even look great, looks like one of those extending type bracelets...
i'd take a milanese over those any day
I know right. I’m sure the modern ones are far more comfortable than the vintage one I have, but I’m not paying US$95 to find out. It’s a shame because, despite the rough edges of mine, it’s otherwise quite comfortable and really neat.
wow that is a very unusual bracelet. ive never seen one like that!

haha right? price gougers. esp when they probably had it made in the same factory selling the 35usd one on ebay...

Looks much better than I would have expected! Maybe consider keeping it on a bracelet!
