I have the exact combo on the way got the shipping confirmation this AM. Newbie here; did this band come with the tubes? Or do I reuse my original PAM ones or what?

Comes with tubes although I have found them to be very slightly longer than the OEM ones and a bit of a squeeze to fit but fine once installed. Look forward to the pics.

WoW! I like... Can you fit it under a cuff?

It's not great under a single cuff although I did wear it on Xmas day with a double button single cuff with only one button done up and it just poked out nicely, although it felt a bit uncomfortable.

It works ok with a double cuff with cuff links athough the buckle and strap are a bit big for a formal look so I tend to wear it on an OEM strap in those circumstances.

Lovely straps guys.

Adrian, its a very nice sober dark brown. Is the buckle sewn in or can you install the OEM buckle?

A1000 · 16 January 2010, 06:16 AM

Saif, it's a screw in buckle, however, as the strap is 24/24 and the OEM is 24/22 you can't interchange the buckles. I like where possible to get screw in buckles so that I can interchange the buckles and the straps. The H18 buckle is quite large and thick but works well with the strap.

CorruptedSanity · 16 January 2010, 06:22 AM

Yes the heroic buckle looks great with this strap.

Must look great in natural light huh.

A1000 · 16 January 2010, 06:57 AM

It does indeed. I contrasts well with the strap and is quite an impossing buckle but it balances well with the size of the PAM.
