Okay - help me out... PAM Straps

[GBJIV]

Is there a reason to think "pure" meaning buy OEM PAM Straps? I would not think so...? Of course hold on to original - inlcluding the rubber strap etc...

Can you guys weigh in and tell me to not worry about PAM Straps so that I can have some fun with this.... there are not a whole lot to choose from on the Bay PAM OEM. But others...

Also, maybe we do a poll for top 5 strap companies.... Give me some suggestions and I will put one together...? Include links if possible? Any pics.

Maybe we can duild a definitive strap resource for TRF... I know paneristi is a great site - after having such great software here on TRF - I am spoiled a bit...

OK this is my TOP 5 :
1. Micah (Mouser & Z-Matten...ROCKS!!!)
2. Strap Culture
3. Kaktus
4. Rob Montana
5. Military Panerai (I just look the site from Toph's thread)

There are alot of companies that make very nice straps for Panerai. My favorite happens to be http://www.paneristi.com/straps/abp/index.html Check them out. Rather expensive ........ but isn't your PAM worth it ?!!

TR - You are right - Micah's straps are awesome!

Thanks,

Jackson,

I have the PAM 104 and have only purchased a factory PAM light brown Croc. strap. I do plan on ordering a couple of straps from them. I'm letting my few pennies accumulate to buy them as I just spent out on my fun cash buying a very expensive exhaust system for my bike.

[GBJIV]

I hear you Mike, I have a co-worker that just bought exhaust for his Harley... That can cost quite a bit and deplete the Watch hobby fund.

Anyway, thanks for the link and the info!

Best,

Not a bad idea... TRF recommended PAM Straps Reference page... I know it might be duplicate from other sites. Nice to keep info "in house"...
