Strap advice for 210

Do you have some nice pictures of your 210?

I am wearing mine on an assolutamente like BOB ... Looks great. I also tried my 74 wotancraft and olterra ... They look very good but give the watch a very sporty look, plus the straps seem to drown the watch as the are 26/26 and quiet thick. I tried a leftover 24/24 rugby while the color looked ok, it is too small. 27 or 26 it should be. I like the 22 clasp.

Now i am thinking dark brown or black croco or the black calf OEM what do think ... Or stay "assolutamenta" or get the real asso OEM ....

Also saw ferretti but again very sporty ... And i better keep that look for my 372

What is your fav strap for the 210 .... Pictures please.

Yes, but I prefer a more dressy look with the 210 and keep the diver look to my 372 ... For the moment.

I know. Wanted to write it before .... Yes, i know it was a diver's watch, too, but i think a 26/26 strap on a 45mm case drowns the watch ... Also the wortancraft did look very good On the 210 ... But it looks better on the 372 ... So no need to wear the 210 with it ...


So questions are:

Black or brown. Calf or croc, matching stiching or off white

Pictures please.

not OEM but very nice quality (cordovan/horween) is always a top quality leather.

I think it would be quite easy to "Dress-up" the PAM 210 without going too formal if you were to use a strap that has a very soft feel and the stitching does not take away from the dial......

The 210 to me looks best with a dressy gator. I think they look great on an OEM black or dark brown gator.

the 210 always seems best on its oem black calf with 26mm lug tapered to 22mm. i've tried larger and different color options but the black calf always seems fit for it. the luminor models seem to be able to carry non tapered and different colors better imo.

a certain napa guy has some new crocs that could really shine on the 210.
