Crazy Horse - Senape - Fiero


Victoria

Recommended Posts

Scoobs1971 is about to plunk down major money for his Holy Grail strap -- either a Greg Stevens Crazy Horse, a Toscana Fiero, or a Mario Paci Senape.

Naturally, I'd like to help him.

So, as requested, here are some snaps of the DSN 112, and Andrew PAM 111h. :)

Wow, Vic!!!!!!!!

And the winner is................. the Fiero :wub: , although it was a close match with the Senape. I really love the texture of the Senape, but the Fiero seems somehow more versatile to me. That last wristshot really convinced me.

Thnx for the very helpful comparison!!

For me the Fiero is the least impressive.. Very common and definately not a GRAIL strap.

CH and MP are close but from the three I would personally choose the MP.

This is about my holy grail.... ;)

I've been looking for the 'perfect' strap for my 111e for some time now. I've already tried a few, but ended up with these 3 in my shortlist. Since I've never had the opportunity to see all in one comparison pic, I've asked Vic for help.

I love all 3, but for my wardrobe the Fiero seems the most versatile/neutral and perhaps the most common one.

By the way, the strap with the cross stitching in your signature looks awesome! Would you mind posting some pics? Do you still make these?

Of course it is about YOUR grail as this was MY opinion since this is an open thread and not a PM ;)

Unfotunately the X stitched strap was from the time I was collaborating with HKTAN. No more available I am afraid.

Wow, Vic!!!!!!!!

Yay! Glad you liked them, Scoobs!

Maxmilian and Erwinner asked in the past for these types of comparison shots, and I was most happy to oblige. I'm only too eager to do this for anyone here -- I can use my huge strap collection for something practical. :)

EXACTLY.

I didn't want to influence you in any way, but given what I know about you, from the Wristchecks, I think the Fiero and you are a perfect fit.

The Senape is indeed, a work of art (this is why I chose the Klimt & Schiele motifs). No question that it should be in a PAM owner's strap arsenal at some point.

But it's a formal strap.

The Fiero has a sensual texture that changes colours from dark mustard to rich reds when you move your wrist. Mostly an informal strap, which looks amazing with jeans, it also is a dashingly fashionable one with a suit.

The Crazy Horse is fun. :)

So you chose well, Scoobs!

Magnificent closeup!

I got my DSN 113, and I must say, a criss-cross strap would give it some oomph. Unfortunately, it's a lot of work for any strapmaker...

@Madasboot: :winkiss:

@Scoobs: That is not Dutch per se, but Flemish (I know, it's the same thing!). I got it in a Brussels art museum, near a commemorative 250 year old monument. It was the only Dutch book in the joint, and about my favourite Secession painter, Gustav Klimt. :victory:

@Sharpie: The Crazy Horse is legendary, isn't it? And up to $200 in the Risti Acc. Corner, because it's sold out! It's not worth that much, but neither is a 24k Fiddy. Panerai specialises in being overpriced in EVERYTHING.
