dadog13 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) Soon I should receive my PAM028 which I managed to pick up this week... I have some ideas for the strap and I have looked around the forum through numerous posts...I am still undecided between a couple of choices, light tan, vintage tan, PAV style from SD, gunny serie 74, olive green...others... what is your favorite choice? post some pics, let's see them! Frogman PRE-V seems a nice choice as well... Edited May 15, 2009 by dadog13
dluddy Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 Metta goes well: Greg Crazy Horse: TC Kodiak Cognac: Toscana Grigio (Modified By Frogman with Black stitching) One I have been eyeing up is this Greg Olivio:
dadog13 Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Posted May 15, 2009 I'll add some pics to give you an idea what are my fav's for now : This is a pic taken from a RG memeber - Silverspeed - it's a Frogman PRE-V strap....to give you a better idea how it goes with a PVD case :
dadog13 Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Posted May 15, 2009 @dluddy...nice variety of straps in your collection... I forgot the CH I from GS...that's a nice one, however lately the RED12 orange tan is a little bit nicer plus the CH is not available at the moment and the used one runs more than RED12's new strap... I like as well the other Greg strap you posted a pic (Greg Olivio)...I suppose it's from his new line?
projectologist Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 Can't go wrong with an old worn OEM gator. You can pick them up for cheap since they are no longer considered mint.
projectologist Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 Tried on a new ammo strap I just received today. It's a slightly olive tinted brown (hard to capture the color with my P&S) with a nice tan calf lining.
Dani Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 I have tested at least 5 dif combo for my 28pvd and the Simona won hands down. search my watch up here for pics V.
Ronin Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 IMHO the Metta like, or leather straps with dark reddish hues look best when going for contrast. If going from compliment, a nice flat black strap also works.
ubiquitous Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 Personally, I like the plain jane ol' vintage Dirks... But, I don't change straps too often Lots of great strap combos you guys have! DL- That 28 is HOT!
watchturbo Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 Always loved the stealth bomber look with black PVD PAMs so this would be my choice. Here's an example from my favorite strap maker Black Buffalo strap with black stitching with matching PVD PreV buckle
fishgodeep Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 My all time favourite is this Robert Ross Signature Metta - 24/22 - quite simply the BEST strap I have ever owned and well worth the
projectologist Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 FGD... I've searched and couldn't find any info on the strap you posted. Is he still around? I really like this one.
rolli Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 here in my topic pam 195 you will see many interesting combos with a pvd pam. and take a look in the topic 004, or see all my pvd models. link: http://www.rwg.cc/members/Pam-195-Pvd-Coup...tml#entry365879 rolli
dadog13 Posted May 16, 2009 Author Report Posted May 16, 2009 FGD... I've searched and couldn't find any info on the strap you posted. Is he still around? I really like this one. I believe those are sold out fro quiet some time and you can find metta's only on the 2nd hand market... @all - thanks for the great ideas!
Watchmeister Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 My 28 T is still months away but I am a classicist with PVD. PAV, baby!
projectologist Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 My 28 T is still months away but I am a classicist with PVD. PAV, baby! The perfect combination!
mossanti Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 the last pvd is nnice..is it dsn? i want to get 1,
VDBroucke Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 V. only this is the best... http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=61053
Watchmeister Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 the last pvd is nnice..is it dsn? i want to get 1, No that PVD was done years ago by a prior member - Finepics. At the time it was state of the art but now there are a number of folks offering even better versions.
oncyte Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 Holy crap...some VERY NICE combinations out there.
tmg Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 Have to agree tan PAV is a classic! Otherwise tan to cognac colors seem to pop the most. Here's an inbound frankenstrap that I had Zack(Red12) put together for me -this will be going on my Pre-A 009. I thought the new Dirk olive/brown shark would be nice but the color is too chocolate and seems flat paired with the PVD -just my 2 cents.
