I have ordered a bunch of Custom Made straps from Mario from Orloff... Gorgeous Croc straps, soft as butter...... He answers emails quick as well...

My first choice after years of trial and error is ABP Paris. I haven’t ordered from Aaron at Combat straps but I really admire his. I plan to order a gator shortly from him. I haven’t had a Panerai for a few years and found him in that time. I’m picking something up in a few weeks on a trip

Check out Toshi straps. Just got two straps and very satisfied with the quality and service. Here are some photos of the Grey Suede on my 233. This strap is super soft and comfy.

Ooh. Tough one. I really like the 723 on bracelet. However, I still prefer the 8 Day GMT function plus the domed sapphire. 729 is beautiful too but not a lot of Ristis approve cuz of the low water resistance. So many choices...

Thank you Hank! The 233 remains the classic though no matter what comes out

John Glance at Dangerous9. The man is not a strap maker, he’s an artist. He has all sorts of exotic skins, including Teju lizard, shark skin, croc, ‘gator, bullfrog (yes, bullfrog) and kangaroo.

Check his work out here:
