Unusual PAM and Strap Combos

Recommended Posts

Good topic. I have to say that I bought this Capretto Grigio strap in one of TC's monster sales for $19 not knowing what it would look good with. I have been pleasantly surprised how it looks on:

Another is the Bob Vanilla strap. Looks surprisingly good on a 111:

Good topic.

Thanks. :)

V was saying the other day, how strap threads are not as frequent anymore on RWG. Let's change that. It's fun!

Heh. I got it for $44.44.

The watches look magnificent. Hold that thought!

WOW.

After seeing your choices, I spent about 30 minutes just now, putting my watches on unusual strap choices. I tend towards the tasteful, and I want to get a little crazy.

Case in point, my Bob Vanilla on the Andrew 111e. Looks great, but it's too...wait for it...vanilla.

Right, black croc is the 'usual suspect' but I really like it on this custom brown strap as worn by Jason Statham in Transporter:

That's not a 250 and definately not an unusual strap combo (half panerais come with this strap as stock)

Ooh, yes. I've seen it before, but never realised it was brown! :)

A purple croc on a gen 111. Wicked.

Great topic idea -- as expected from our beloved Queen Vicky. :)

Apologies for not having time enough to post pics but just my opinion.

Many awesome combos here. Very few unlookable ones (to my Italian taste at least). :p

Not so bad on such a brave subject like this, IMHO.

The one I am 99% syntonic with is old skool, though.

Congrats! :thumbs:

Prototype Savage strap. Sadly, he can't get this hide any longer. I think there are 2 other straps made from this leather out there somewhere...

I don't know how "unusual" this is, but it's something that I don't see "in the wild" too often. Which is a shame, as it's a wonderful strap. Mario Paci Private Stock in cognac

Good topic.

This buckle comes from the sling of an old H&K AG-3 submachine gun (used by the IRA, Muslim fundementalists, African guerillas AND the Norwegian army), which just happens to be a 24mm sling. The metal was once powdercoated black, but it

Well, I'll just concentrate on the Norwegian army bit, and say, WOW!

Both in looks and functionality (one-hand snap offs, try that with a regular strap), an innovative strap. Yes, a little thin, but consider its background. I like it a lot.

BTW, the purple croc shot is not mine. I am neither male, nor black, nor do I own that fine autombile. :p

@Blobe: Yes, the gentleman said his wrists are 6.4". That's fairly small for a man's wrist.
