518 - Which Straps ?

[Duncan_McCloud]

I am about to get a PAM 518. Unofrtunately it's not so common on the "Today thread", so I am really wondering if any straps would make it look better than the Brown leather default one.
Any suggestion ?

Well the white dial does lend itself to any color as it is a neutral one. So I believe any color strap of your choosing would go nicely with that watch.

A nice quality croc definitely.

I like it on a black shark strap from Kain:



Or a grey toad strap:





On the Kain strap, it has become my go-to black tie watch.

They are both very nice looking, perfect for formal occasions.

First experience with the "butterfly clasp". Totally hate it. Maybe I don't know how to use it but I find it really umcomfortable when putting the watch on the wrist. Maybe it's my fault.
I also think that the brown strap are too much "classic" for my taste and I don't really wear "classic" even at work. Still need to find out some more "sporty-everyday" strap.
Both watches looks wonderful!

PAM519, not something you see everyday. Did the factories ever update the printing on the movement? As for the butterfly deployant, I do prefer their old type deployants like on the PAM288.

They really looks amazing idd. Tempted to add the 520, but gonna be quiet for some months, or I will end up having too much watches.

I really don't know... here a pic of the back of the 518:



and here what i think could be a nice "sport" strap for the 518. Any opinion appreciated.

I see. It is still the same then. Thanks for the picture. As for the strap, well blue rubber isn't my thing, but if you like it, wear it.
