I was never really into leather...

...'till I discovered Panerai...
...and now I only buy stuff that goes with my Panerai straps...







Speaking of leather, I never thought I'd buy OEM; not that OP doesn't have some very nice straps on offer, but there are many excellent custom strap makers out there to keep me more than satisfied. However, when I saw the "black calf vintage" for the first time (I think it was the 508), I had to have it (or something very close to it). I inquired by my favorite strap makers and one even sourced this type of "cracked" texture, but the third-party leather had more cracks than leather (I'd call it super-distressed). It also happened to be my birthday and so I gave my GF a hint...
