Pam 161

Can the bracelet on these be changed for a leather strap fairly easily ?

Tried this on and the PAM 251 today - both stunning but the strap option might swing it

Thanks for that - I thought so, but decided better to check.

Going back tomorrow and have to choose - originally it was the 251, but now wavering with the thought of the option of bracelet or strap

Once you go straps, it is hard to go back! So comfy, so good smelling, so many varieties.

Good luck.

Well I'm now in the club - so to speak.

Took the plunge ................ went for the PAM161, think I would have been happy with either but got them to throw in a brown croc strap as well and that clinched the deal.

V happy and finding myself staring at my wrist a lot

Straps? What straps?

Straps make you love your Panerai more...Believe me...I know.

Great choice.
Much cheaper to start with a bracelet & change to straps.
An OEM bracelet is way too expensive to add after the fact.
Congrats & Wear in good health.
