Icon4 sorry guys- another new strap for PAM 183- a beast

well it arrived today - my new strap from Monster straps. 26/26- polished V buckle

so far so good-beautiful design IMO and very very comfortable but I am just not sure that I love the 26mm buckle width with no tapering as opposed to the 22mm on the actual Panerai strap.

Now that's a beautiful strap...congrats. I think I tend to agree with you in that I would probably prefer a slight taper down to the buckle. I think a taper would actually show off the rest of the strap & watch a little better. But she's still a beauty...just love those type of straps! Cheers.

Very unique grain.

I think you'll get used to the non-taper. More rugged/historic. Definitely less dressy.

Looking good man!

Toph - I agree. Weekend- Rugged - hanging out look. Less Dressy...

It's that military look. I just ordered a few straps and went all non-taper and a little longer...

It's suppose to be a strong look... Enjoy! Looks great!

yeah i think you hit the nail on the head- it is certainly a more rugged laid back look

VIVA la Pam
