1499 on JV strap

Gari at the PANERAI boutique in Vegas was nice enough to switch out the strap on a 1499 to the nubuck alligator for me see. Really changed the entire look of the watch and really has me considering applying my winnings of the week (LOL) on this beauty!

That strap and watch are most definitely an attractive match. When my wife and I were at that boutique a few months ago, I was very impressed with the quality of service we received.

So, are you going to pull the trigger?

I have that strap on my 632 and it is by far my most favourite of all!

Looks great. I like the white dials...the strap will age wonderfully. The subtle blue second hand is a nice touch as well.

I have that strap too. It's my favourite OEM strap and will match up with a lot of PAMs.

Looks quite impressive on the 1499. Go for it!

Thank you

It looks awesome on all three of mine. I'm thinking Brian needs one on his 690 too
