Combat Straps strikes again...

Loving this distressed Olive Gator from Aaron.

It’s been a while since I’ve had an incoming from him.

Very nice, very nice indeed. I love the way it completely transforms the 312 into a totally different watch. That’s the beauty of Panerai, I guess.

Just out of interest, what car is that, Bill?

Thanks Cru.

Every time I get a new strap - especially from Aaron - it's like I have a new watch. This strap was particularly nice. The quality of the distressed finish was up there with the Panerai "Jules Verne" nu buck offering.

Thanks.

Usually I think of green as pretty limiting. However, this olive treatment is pretty versatile.

Thanks folks.

I might like a distressed Black as well. I don't think Panerai even makes the Black Jules Verne any longer. Last I checked they were $450 / custom order?
