ammo and rad is very nice together!

Thanks to Nishant's ammo shots on his 372, I had to order the strap and man... it does give the watch a very vintage feel... loving it! Thank you Nishant for the pointer on the strap!

Thanks guys! I do not have the incredible photographer skill like Nishant but these straps are very vintage like and are made by wotancraft called "Reinforcement". Nishant first showcased this strap with his 389. This is probably the best bang for the buck for this old ammo look... very well constructed. I think in about a month, it will be butter soft!

I also ordered a JV for the 190 and the strap really brings out the versatility of the Rad.. in dressy or casual fashion!

Beautiful with the 190. I really like the gold colored hands on a PAM.

Beautiful pictures of an equally stunning watch.

This is a perfect example of the "magic" from Panerai, with the ammo you will have the vintage rugged military look. A quick change to the Jv and you will have an elegant dress watch.

& Enjoy

Becareful. Spreads quickly and overwhelms your immune $ystem. I don't know how many $traps I have now!

I can hear my wife now, "Another strap? . . . I need more jewelry."

The best reply is "OK." : (
