sevomd Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 What a beauty. The new Cg and crown are pretty FKN awesome. Eddy
fitch Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 looks amazing! do you think that with a relume by finepics for instance the numbers could be made to look more like the genuine (which is a non-sandwich dial with "crooked" numbers)? cause that would be the icing on the cake imho.. but apart from that small detail a fantastic watch!
sevomd Posted May 25, 2006 Author Report Posted May 25, 2006 This wrap around XaMas strap is to for... I love the GPF-Mod Dep buckle. Eddy

I've asked him about it, says it might be an improvement but not sure how it would turn out. Might just keep it this way. Eddy
fitch Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 it still looks damn fine as it is!! is looks reaaaalllly tempting...
sevomd Posted May 25, 2006 Author Report Posted May 25, 2006 were did you get that strap?! it's a beauty! Its a Strapmaster Prototype XaMas. Got it on th P**isti site. Eddy
V Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 Its a Strapmaster Prototype XaMas. Got it on th P**isti site. Eddy I am making a custom strap that I believe will be SUPERB.. Same style like the XaMas, vintage 50yo leather Plus a XaMas buckle.. sweet Dimensions and style made by me:
ridnwind Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 My avatar is on the loose! The 201/A Logo is the "essence" of Panerai. Fantastic watch!
Faber Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 have this one on the way to me...cany wait to see my 201 and 202...
fitch Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 what other straps would be nice? how about this one: http://www.strap-works.com/1860LVCA-07.jpg i am not sure if it is thick enough (i REALLY like thick straps..)
V Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 what other straps would be nice? how about this one: http://www.strap-works.com/1860LVCA-07.jpg i am not sure if it is thick enough (i REALLY like thick straps..) not so thick.. between 3 and 4mm
fitch Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 @V; any idea what would be a better alternative in this color range? i really like this type of color
V Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 I had a very similar colour for sale but Finepics got it fast.. It doesn't come to my mind something similar... maybe a Mario Paci used from Paneristi, or a BOB caramel / coconut vertigo(not very thick though) ?
fitch Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 hmmm... that looks sweet allright.. does anybody know the reference numbers of the Pre-Vendome straps?
sevomd Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Posted May 26, 2006 (edited) Strapmaster is starting to sell them. The buckle has logos on them which I don't like too much. I believe the one I have was bought at Strapmasters Europe and was one of the prototypes. Eddy Edited May 26, 2006 by sevomd
V Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 price of Xa Mas is not real ..sory Unfortunately Christian not everybody is true enough to price his straps accordingly to what they really cost.. Maybe some of the Die-hard Paneristi MUST pay a lot for their straps to justify theirselves. The XaMas strap is an AMAZING but Unreally expensive as BOB said.
tescardo Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 (edited) price of Xa Mas is not real ..sory What would YOU charge for an appropriate strap? Can you offer something like that? Regards Edited May 26, 2006 by tescardo
Dirk Pitt Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 Do either of you guys make one a strap like the Strapmasters Marina Militare Vintage Calf cus I'd jump at a 26/26 in a similar leather? I'm considering ordering another one from them and would rather give you guys the money if available.
V Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 What would YOU charge for an appropriate strap? Can you offer something like that? Regards He is charging 50$ for his Vertigo line while he could easily sell them for 100$. He is not offering something like that because his straps are not for the same people Strapmasters are.

I'm considering ordering another one from them and would rather give you guys the money if available. Chuck, I am making a Xxl style strap with the XaMas buckle but this is my private vintage project. )(I bought the XaMas buckle and took it off from the XaMas strap for myself) If you have a XaMas buckle I can put it on for you, or you can have it with a Pre-V logo buckle, or just a plain sewn-in buckle.
