Hi Everyone!!!
I’ve been playing with my Panerai pam01523.
Already have some nice straps.......

I’ve been changing straps twice a week or more.
It just looks so different and Awesome!!!

The question, is the mechanism designed to do this so often???
It’s a great easy mechanism to change straps,
just worried it can be damaged if used this often.

Good question I am up to 3 times a week!!

Txkill · 22 October 2018, 11:39 AM

i have 2 straps and i change them around every other week or so just to have a change up.

bonovox · 22 October 2018, 11:57 AM

Pretty much any time a Panerai makes it into the rotation ( a few times a week). I always switch it up.

depends on the model. the 1389, all the time the others when the spirit moves me.

So true... while I’ve slowed down some, I probably change each time I wear mine. It’s been 7 years and countless changes, and no issues with the buttons.

Thanks everyone........
In one month with my Pam Im still changing the straps very often.

Glad to hear the strap quick release buttons work properly and will last.

I saw the blue one on you 1523 and was wondering what strap it is, thanks

The buttons will last, change as much as you like. The only failures I've seen have been the entire mechanism casing fall out of the lug not the mechanism itself fail.

I just bought 564 in Florence and changed the strap for the 2nd time in a month. Started with rubber from the boutique, went to the alligator and put the calf skin on tonight. Totally different look as the calf skin is light brown. Even thought I just got it I feel like I need one more. Lol

I agree with you it feels like a different watch when you change straps,
that’s why we just want more awesome straps!!!!

Not that often - maybe once a month. I only have 3 straps for it - a black alligator, the rubber strap, and a brown riva strap. All are OEM. The issue I have is that I only have one deployment clasp and so it takes me a little longer. I would get some aftermarket straps with buckles but haven't come across any that I truly love yet.

boxterduke · 27 October 2018, 02:29 AM

I change everyday most of the time. Depends mostly on what I wear. Sometimes I match the strap to my shoe and others to my shirt or pants.
