Strap Question help!

Hi all, I'm a new and proud ownwe of PAM 111 and loving every minute of it! I also love the strap changing system of PAM and to date I have bought 3 after market straps.

Now I'm looking for JV suede nubuck croc straps. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Welcome and congrats on the 111! Great choice.

As Louie mentioned P.com or an AD would be your best bets.

Let's see some pics when you get a chance!

Have to agree that No.2 looks the best. Will definitely post up some pics of my 111 once I sort out how to do it..... not very good with the computer...

Are the nubuck straps thinner as compared to normal after market straps which has a thickness of about 4-5mm?

They are thinner than 4mm. but, don't feel thin (That really makes no sense. Sorry) - I will check for you... Have to get that measuring thing out. I'll post in a bit.

Okay... I even opened the new tool up - fresh out of the package - It's a dial caliper...

Anyway - at the lug end of the strap it's right at 2mm

Down at point it's a little shy of 2mm (This is for the OEM JV Gold)

Hope this is helpful. It is a very nice strap - A boutique would be a good way to go. If I come across an opportunity to get another - I will post here the information for you.

Best,
