Quality

Hi
I bought OEM Assolutamente strap from AD and I love it.
But I found out the brown seal/paint peel out from the edge of the strap loop after I wore in 2 days and more paint/ seal are peeling out. But this is not happen to my calf and choc strap.
Is it normal ? Or something went wrong ?
Thanks

Take it back and ask AD. I have several OEM's and they have never done what you stated.

I had the same problem with the cashmere strap. Paint started to peel off the edges after a day or so. I returned it to Panerai for a refund.

A little off topic, but Mario Paci makes "absolutely mario" which I think is an homage to assolutamente OEM. I have been happy with the quality of my MP strap. If they give you a refund or concession, consider the Paci, and you'll still have some $ to spare and its Italian hand made. FWIW.
