Cracked rubber strap

Hey guys. My aged Panerai rubber strap has cracks. I'm looking to replace but noticed the OEM one I'm looking at is made in Italy, not Austria, as my original. Does anyone know if authentic Panerai rubber straps are now manufactured in Italy? Thanks.

I just picked up one of their dark brown (almost looks black depending on the sun) )rubber straps. So far, I cannot tell the difference between the qualities of Austria vs Italy. Both are solidly built. Plus as an added bonus, Panerai puts an immense amount of packaging and pomp with their delivery, which made a simple purchase a bit nicer. Good luck with your purchase.
