As per the title, I wanted to see how my 176 would look with an orange rubber strap so I bought one from zuludiver when they had a sale.

Even in the dark (

) one can see that's a nice and pretty flashy combo.

I've thought of getting an orange or red strap to spice things up.

Yes, unfortunately my local Panerai dealer didn't have any orange straps in stock so I ordered one... The strap from zuludiver is fine considering I paid 3 UKP for it. I had to make a jig resembling my wrist and boil it into shape to make it wearable though.

I have also thought about getting a red strap too.

Oh, the buckle is also aftermarket, titanium, from some ebay seller in Germany, it cost more than the strap and is really nice.

There's something about orange straps. John Glance has Teju lizard skins in 'Emergency Orange' and I cannot shake the idea of getting one on my 737.

I know, green and orange, ew, but I can't help thinking it'll be so wrong that it'll be awesome.

Great summer strap, although I much prefer NATO to rubber
