My thoughts are #4 would look the best on the 187 (assuming it has the blue 1000 like the gen on the dial to match the stitch), but I like #3 the best overall. Also, see this thread: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=7812

I like #4 (I just wish they are made in XL lengths).

Yup!Saw that thread already chief!

I'm deciding between 3 and 4 althoguh 4 matches best with the blue 1000 somehow I'm leaning towards no.3 it's less sporty than the one with blue stitching and that was my idea to make it a less sporty...

Make sure to order straps with the correct lug width. The 187 has 26mm lug width, not 24mm found on most Panerai watches.

I have the #3 Europelli on my 188 and I love it, but that HK Tan strap

I am still on the fence on the 187 as my next Pam or the Fiddy. Either way I am going to get a Greg Strap for the one I get, maybe I'll get both, but the straps that Greg Stevens makes are about the best I have seen. There are a number of good choices out there in any event and the 187 would look good with just about any strap.

My vote for # 2 & 3. Greg's will fit this 187 pretty well too.
