Ti case and a distressed grey strap, pure sweetness

I purchased this strap some time ago and my wife did not let me see it and gave it to me a couple of days ago for my B Day. I knew it would be a amazing combo for a ti case and really makes the gold hands pop. I have some great straps that work well with the ti case and gold hands, but this just might be my favorite.

Out of the dozens of high end watches I have owned, none have made me as happy and content as the 351.


A teaser....




Some more...

It is leather but it is distressed to give it a different look. It is just a nice variety to all the similar looking leather straps.

I appreciate the feedback, I am very happy it it for sure.

Paneristi deleted this post because they don't get along with Elliot who is the distributor of Mario Paci straps in the US. It is a old grudge that goes way back with some of the mods. I's nice that TRF is more laid back when it comes to strap makers, especially the ones who worked for Panerai for decades then branch out on their own.

You did a great job capturing the gold hands. I snapped some pics of a friends 351, and had a hell of a time.

Hi Trevor.
I am considering a 351 and find your strap a perfect match. Is there a number or name to that strap or is it a custom made strap?

Hi Trevor: Great looking combo. Love the strap color play with the ti case.
I have a Pam 326 ti and your strap would be a great addition. Could you provide me with who made it and the style numner. Much thanks. Enjoy.

love the watch. not sure the combo though..

seems like the strap needs to be a different color so the pam can pop.
