lantis Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 So EU members, where do you buy your straps? I'm caught with the PAM bug and now looking for straps-- the straps that was included in the first PAM I bought doesn't fit me and I don't want to ruin it by adding an extra hole. I've been searching the forum for links of EU dealers but I always find dealers from US/Asia, not in EU. Is it better to buy outside of EU?

mambo Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) Doesn't matter where you buy your straps, ... they are not replica's I usually buy from Ray : http://www.paneray.c...ray/straps.html In the EU, try Toshi ( Rich ) : http://www.toshi-str...o.uk/index.html But there are too many http://www.paneraiso...et_straps.shtml Edited August 3, 2011 by mambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lantis Posted August 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 heh, well usually the market is usually divided, so I've asked. Thanks guys! I'll dig through the links :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klockis Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 In EU I usually buy from Dirk, Simona, Orloff or OEM from the Panerai boutique. World wide: Ray, Inspire workshop, Peter Watch Acc, the list is enless. Check out Paneristi for some more great strap makers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mills Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Watchboys Canada... best OEM-like gator strap out there. +1. I've got a alligator Watch Boys strap on deployant and it is lovely. Definitely worth the $109. If only they did a strap that fits the 288k they could have some more money from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highflyingclive Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 The best straps that I have all came from HK Tan. Made to measure and absolutely lovely. The gen guys speak highly of his work, too. Possibly the best and most expensive, short of a gen Pam strap is www.ABP-paris.com You can have hours of fun designing a strap on their website.. then baling out before you have to pay for it :-) Happy timekeeping!

aurtus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I have also purchased from Toshi (rich) and was very happy with the quality...but If you have time you can probably find the exact design you are looking from from this list of strap makers: www[dot]strapaholics[dot]com/strapmaker-directory/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
