Nubuck confusion
I've oiled up one of the OEM straps but not sure what looks better, so what's the opinions here, is it number 1, the oiled OEM, number 2, the Simona Nubuck or number 3, the new OEM?

Ryan, all three of them look beautiful but to me for some reason the Simona Nu-buck looks nicer

The Simona is very comfy to wear, but the colour is a bit off putting, it's almost the same colour as skin!
Looking at the pictures the oiled one looks blotchy, but it's not, the lights catching, and it's making it a little darker in areas, in reality it's like the lighter bits on the second picture and looks great, it's also a bit older and had a hard life being used daily, so thought i'd try and breathe some new life into it

Nubuck is not supposed to be oiled.I dont like the look.
The OEM Nubuck Gold is the nicest(The best OEM Panerai strap) and the Simona too |

i have t say my prev still goes out to the OEM JV , compared to the Simona, i like the Croc , the oiled one is a tat to dark for me, but indeed might look very diff with some sun on it (get out there give us a wrist shot Ryan :-) )
