Maybe... but the time-frame depends on how much it gets worn and where it gets worn (in an office environment or outdoors doing something more laborious). I've had the first one for three months now, rotating it with other straps on the 233. I just bought the 26x26 for my 217 so we'll see. There are many more PAMs now being delivered with the Vintage calf (the new USA-only 590, to name one); so I'd like to think that OP did their homework.

All I know is that they are comfortable to wear and they look damn good

Very nice indeed. Wotancraft is probably my favorite strapmaker. However, there are a few I have to try still. Toshi might be one I should look at judging from your pics!

"That strap"... could you be a little more specific?

These were posted in a separate thread but these are my favorite custom straps so I wanted to share it here too...

I needed another fix!!!

Added the very last of Toshi straps' Grey Storm for my 217 (26x26) and well as his beefy ~5mm olive

click-the-pics for hi-res goodness...










Two shades of grey... (the older 24x24 strap(r) shows some patina...)




Toss in his Cocoa and I have a few additional combos...

Great photos Traveller.

I've got a storm grey strap coming from Rich for my 233 dot in a couple of weeks and also a burgundy one.

Do you have any other toshi straps other than the grey, cocoa and olive?

Thx, gents!

Martin, I'd say four straps from Rich is a good start (2 Storm Greys) - two 24x24 and two 26x26. Of course he has so many wonderful choices I'm fairly certain I'll eventually be back for more...

Next up though will be a very nice grey alligator for my 217 from John...

The vintage "tobbaco" gets ALOT of wrist time and embodies the old world Italian Panerai look.

Very nice, however any more pics of your 911 anywhere on this site? Looks like a mid 90s with a GT3 tail? Looks beautiful

No Please stop please no more pictures of these gorgeous straps




Great shots of a range of lovely straps but it's not doing my strap addiction any good. I even have leather straps on my Rolexes and Blackbay now.

The only thing you need is adding a historical 74 strap to your collection..
