Panerai Velcro

Post by koda240 » Wed Apr 03, 2013 7:57 am

Do you ever wear your PAM Velcro? I rarely if ever see people post pics with it. I wear mine a ton. The short side fits a bit goofy but i love how sporty and adjustable it is. Just curious if you guys ever sport yours.

Have never taken mine out of the box. To be fair, i just don't think it would look good on the 003.

I rocked it often on a 25; I'm a fan.

I never have nor seen others wear it. Its funny that panerai owners often pit aside the Velcro and the croc and ho right for custom straps. Myself included

I've tried several times because I like the concept, but end up finding it bulky and uncomfortable on my skinny (but manly!) wrist

Agree with the OP leather for sure, but I like their rubber(nothing as great as Sinn rubber) and obviously this Velcro. Its about the best weekend strap i know of for a heavy watch like the 243. I wish a simple nato would do, but no such luck.

I've never tried the PAM Velcro, but I have a similarly designed GGB strap that I wear on my Sinn. I don't think I would care for it very much on my 243 due to the weight of the case. For a summer/weekend strap, the Isofrane is my personal preference.

I took mine out of the box and it looked way too small, I'm sure I didn't open the strap all the way up and put it back in the box! ISO looks good on any dive watch and comfy as can be, between it the original rubber, the 243 rubber I'm set in that dept. I do love to wear canvas on my 00024 and with 2 of Micah's ( green & camo) I'm good with that style but my Pam has Drew's tan canvas on it about 60% of the time of late, there is just something manly about it with the steel eyelets or grommets :rock: I need to get with Drew and do a couple other colors for summer in that same style!
