Ted Su Dive Strap and Buckle

Swimming weather is fast approaching and I'm planning a bareboat sailing trip in the BVIs for late-summer. Makes me wonder what's going to be my 'go-to' strap for my Panerai when I'm in and around the water. Thinking about getting this strap with blue stitching for my PAM 48: https://teddy-straps.3dcartstores.co...ap_p_358.html# What do you guys think? Anyone have pics of their Panerai on the Ted Su dive strap / buckle they'd like to share? Thanks.

The best strap I've found. The buckle allows the perfect fit. Mine has been in the water a bunch. Dries quickly.

Some feel the buckle is a bit large. It is big, but I've not found it to be overly so.

I liked it so much I picked up another one for the 88.

I have a black/white stitch that was notched for my Deep Sea. I LOVE the clasp and the strap. Very comfy and worth every penny. Clasp is a bit wide and has sharp edges but overall I think its a winner. I plan to buy several more for other watches.

I'm sorry, where are my manners?! Apologies guys but I pulled apart the Ted Su and used the buckle on another watch/strap. I plan to buy another one but for now I don't have it mounted to the DS and don't plan to move it soon. I've been wearing the original bracelet lately. You'll have to trust me that it looks great!

Actually, I might as well show you what I did. I recently bought this Aquanautic Super King. (I'll post a full review later, sorry to thread hijack) I didn't like the clasp that came with it. Its a dual deployant that requires you to cut the strap and it has zero adjustment so you only get one shot. No diver extension and not a single way to open it up on a hot day etc. Here's the watch:



So I chucked that buckle and installed the Teddy buckle for infinite adjustment!
Here it is!

What size lugs does a PAM 243 have? I want to order this strap but have never ordered a strap before. Thanks, JPS
