Icon10 New shoes on the 312!

Hey Everyone!
Wanted something "casual" for everyday wear at work, and was kinda over the OEM rubber strap- So I rang my buddy Alex at Panerai NYC and told him to pick something for me.

Anyway- here's what he sent:
"Rugby Calf"- sounds 'casual' enough...

Whoa. Niiiice. Like the smooth calf with the contrast stitching:

Looks pretty cool on the 312!

Really like how that leather looks...hope it wears well:

OK- time for the 'Money Shot':

Thanks for looking!

I have that one ordered, and will likely put it on my 164 or 000. Nice strap!

Don't know if you have seen the PAM Riva band, but it's hot.
