SIZE 26 TURKISH SHOES : ZEUGMA CONTENT [ XL post ]
Guys ! Guys ! Guys ! After a lot of delay, on this rather sleepy monday night .. I have decided to put together this thread that has been long overdue since this represents The Best 26 mm Strap I have experienced so far and has been waiting on the sidelines for a few weeks now ..
[ for the 24mm, the recognition belongs to a Delaurian patiently waiting for its turn as well ]
MADE IN TURKEY and Hand-Made by well known strap-artisan, Nuri Fodul, this TURKISH AMMO STRAP represents his craftsmanship at its finest. I placed an order for this Custom Strap soon after purchasing my 305. Nuri's communication and swiftness of replies amazed me. He communicated about various aspects of the strap on multiple occasions ...
The anticipation of this master-strap really made the wait time of 6 week sound not-so-bad
The End Result : Sent in an awesome looking leather pouch, the strap looked gorgeous enough for me to admire it for days before finding the courage to mount it on I almost want to buy an identical strap for back-up when using this one .. CraZiEE.. EHH..I kno.
I probably am as excited about this strap as I am for any new watch arrival. Guess it shows ...
LET THE PICTURES DO THE TALKING
I absolutely love the character of this leather .. Helps the 305 make one fine statement [ Not that it needs a lot of help .. as is ]
Hate to add a pile of pictures but just couldn't help myself ...
A Collection of Pictures
And a Black and White to close off the show ... My apologies for an extra long post as a testament of my strap-obsession.
Cheers

Fantastic. The next strap I order will be a Zeugma.

Exquisite, Nishant

150-200 USD I believe .. Most straps are around 160 .. Worth every dollar !Jeep99dad wrote:Exquisite, Nishant

this might the exception to the saying "sex on a strap" - instead this would be "sex on a watch"
(although the watch is no slouch, either)

Love the strap and I think it looks great on the watch (and I'm generally not a Panerai fan). However, the lawyer in me is wondering whether Panerai has given the strapmaker permission to use its logo (although what he's using is not the exact logo). If not, he may be receiving a call...aboen wrote:Not sure if diggin' the Panerai logo on the strap though

There z the catch .. It is not an OP logo .. In theory, it is TP .. The Thai Paneristi Logo.. but gives the same impression as OP : nothing wrong with that.
