Anyone have an AliExpress or DHGate vendor for quality Panerai 22mm or 24mm steel buckles?

I used to use Wendy Bei from AliExpress pre-pandemic but lost her contact.

Quality I mean rep quality, laser etched or deeply engraved, not like the cheap quick stamp logo.

Example of a cheap stamped logo that I don't want:

Not to hijack, but this would be a good place for any vendor links that have quality replica PAM asso or cat rubber straps too branded or non branded. I know that they are out there, it's just such a crapshoot, I never take a chance on anything from dhgate or Ali these days!

Buy straps has good quality buckles. Next to my gen buckles I cant tell the difference

MaximillianGT · 6/12/23

Not buckle but I bought a Pam 438 bracelet from Aliexpress, it's identical to my vsf one.

They are out there but few and far between now. In the past I suspect cat & dog skin was widely used. Some with great quality. Not so much now.

Again, not to hijack this thread, but as @ward1991 mentioned this may be a good place to share product information.

A friend of mine told me about these Accordeon Straps. I ordered them and they are the best rep accordeons I have had. Even better than vsf, hfac, noob in my opinion. I will try and take some side by side pics with my gen acccordeon. They feel just like gen! The holes at the lugs are a bit smaller than gen though.

I did not order it with the buckle so i cannot comment on that part.

Here is the link:

For panerai officine rubber. My friend tells me this is the best one! I have yet to order it but I will take his word for it. Similar feel as the accordeons mentioned above.

Thank you! I'm going to try these. I'm on the hunt for any pam rubbers that don't agitate the heck out of my wrist. I'm allergic to something in the super cheap ones I guess.

I wish someone made one with the same exact material as the seiko resin strap here, it is without a doubt THE best "rubber" strap in the world!

What is the belkin build of if I may ask?

I just picked up this pre-v marcello shark strap for my belkin 201A and it is SWEET!

Lagunax · 6/12/23

@ward1991 it’ll be my 4th Belkin he’s building it now. The dial, hands, and sapphire will look like the following Natas but will be in Belkin’s all polished mini fiddy case with clear manual back. A fantasy build but it’s what I want:

I have this Belkin inbound :

PAM 1347 45mm hand finished PVD

Hello gents. I'd be glad to share one of the recent builds. This build is inspired by PAM1347 which belongs to 134x series. All the build's specs are basically similar to the 1348 and 1349 builds.
