Panerai OEM straps

I searched the forum, perhaps not thoroughly, but couldnt find the answer

Has Panerai changed the length of their straps recently?

I bought a JV from the Milan boutique but the 6'oclock side (with the holes) is longer than my standard length straps but the 12 o'clock side is the same length as what I have.

I thought the salesperson gave me the wrong size so I took it to the NYC boutique and was told that I have one of the new standard length straps. I lined it up tothe longer length and its shorter. He went on to say that the customers were complaining that the standard length was too short for the 2nd keeper, which kind of makes sense to me but not sure if this is BS

The two that I have are the same length. Neither is very new. Did they go from 115 to 120?

It appears to be 1 cm longer... but I don't have a metric ruler

News to me. I'll try and measure my OEM's tonight, but I haven't had any new ones lately.

I have seen 115/75 and 125/75 sizes for sale recently. What does it say on the package?

125/75 sounds about right since it looks close to a cm longer. I didn't get the plastic sleeve - I thought they put the strap into it before placing it into the Panerai strap box thing but when I opened it, it wasn't there.

The receipt says MX003863 which is the 115/75 i believe
