New shoes

Went to the Panerai boutique to buy a replacement for my JV and ended up buying a gold calf strap

I must say they never did much for me but after seeing it in person, I love the look and feel.

Actually - is that not a CASHMERE strap and not the "regular" calf strap?

Hi Renato

I'm fairly sure its the cashmere strap! And its a beauty. I owned one for a short while and the leather is much more soft that the regular calf strap. Its well like by many and hard to get -- so good score!

Yeah, it looks like the cashmere strap. Do you have the Panerai strap reference #? Killer strap!

This is what the blue area of the sticker says

MX001LP2
CALF
GOLD
24/22 BA 115/75

But, there is a tiny sticker on top of it that says "Cashmere/Calf Gold"

Yep, as far as I know, that's the cashmere strap. Description on offical price list is "Cashmere God Calf."
