I've spent more than 2k buying straps eversince i got my pam 2 years ago ,
One of the best around, got to be simona 1st generation straps,
GSD Value for money , Ted Su super comfortable , i own both ted su Big Hornback straps and his Swiss Ammo straps.
I've been wearing the Swiss Ammo straps from ted su almost everyday for the past 2 mth , real nice vintage feel and smell .

Hi,

I need experts here to recommend good and affordable watch straps for pam. New is preferred. The reason I am seeking recommendations is because there are just too many straps and strap-makers to choose, and many are expensive. And it seems most are from overseas. I still prefer to see, feel and touch what I am going to buy, especially when it does not come cheap. My wrist size shld be 'small', so I am not sure what is the correct sizing for a strap to fit my wrist.

I have placed reservation for a pam and I hope to acquire a third-party strap to use. The lug size I am looking at are 24mm and 26mm.

Tx.

For me the most comfy gotta be the Simonas..I have some Landas that I like too. For awesome texture and unique look I'd go for Ray Straps (Paneray) or Wotancraft..most of them should be able to customise your preferred lengths.

i like Ted Su french ammo and swiss ammo...his croc and hornback are nice too....love his buckles...hehehehe....exp abit but the quality of his straps are there de....

[TonnyB]

My 2 cents worth...

My current strap preferences are Mario Paci, Simona, ABP, OEM, Ted Su, Zeugma, Greg Stevens (not in order). The above brands are top notch quality, with solid leather and high quality finishing.

Good Luck in your strap hunting!

[Oceanklassik]

Tx to all!

I'm even more confused now..

[GadgetGuy]

No need to be confused Check out the websites recommended here. See which strap you like best and within your budget. Then just order from them with the length you want. Plenty to choose from the list of recommended & tested strap makers.

Ok, will try one of those recommended by all the shifus here. Wish me luck!

Dats great, once you start, u might not be able to stop

This is one part of panerai ownership which i enjoy a lot, searching for straps that compliments yet gives a different feel of the watch. Have fun!!
