Doing it again: Horus Straps on PAM233
As a follow-up to my wonderful thread started way back when of putting a Rubber B on a PAM 233 (dot dial), I present to you this new PAM 233 of mine with a new rubber strap made by Horus Straps.

Notes:
1. No steel tubes used
2. Retained new clasp
3. Rubber is more flexible than Rubber B
4. Colored pattern is only on top & sides of Horus, not underneath (it's not "set" all the way through the band)

So far I'm liking it!

Yes. Their website has a lighter "white" pattern and a few color patterns as well (e.g., red, blue).

I really love that look. I'm looking at a Panerai for my next purchase, and this just might be the first strap I add!

233 is awesome. I tried one the other day at the Panerai store and it is a stunning watch.

The rubber compound on these straps is really great. Unfortunately the camo print is layered on top of the rubber so it does fade away with wear.
