Just bought a new black buffalo calf strap for my 88. Very happy with how it looks.

The texture of the strap is pretty cool, it's almost half way between leather and suede, it's better than that sounds!

Anyway wanted to share.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks all, Amazing how strap can change a watches look, you got to love panerai for that. Seriously thinking about getting another pam now.

Where did you get that strap? I have an 88 and that strap looks great.

I have the same strap but for tang buckle. I think its a really cool strap and pictures don't do it justice because of the black color / lighting. Basically, its buffalo leather, and it has a light suede-like texture, quite soft and "warm" on the wrist. Its also a fraction thinker than the regular OEM calf straps which makes it look even nicer on the wrist.

Mine looks great on the 000 and 233... and its looks mighty fine on the 88 too! Congrats!

i like it but i dont think its applicable for hot climate. its a good thing there are still buffaloes for leather.

Hi Foregehead. I bought it from a panerai ad in London.
