I've just got my hands on a Pam 243 noob v3. I really like it. I have a marlin fiddy 127 and kW 382 bronzo but this submersible is the right size I think and hits the spot. The quality of the case is fantastic.


I have the rubber strap and an asso but I want to see some more suggestions and photos of straps.


Thanks

Great choice of straps. I like the lighter brown/tan combo I think

I spent a lot of time searching for a perfect strap for 243 (in normal price range, around $100) and finally decided on this:













And I'm so glad I did, I just love the look even after a year. Great combo! I got a comment that I should got it with different stitching color instead of green which made me think about it but after comparing some pics I concluded that it's exactly what makes it special. :)

Very nice I like it. The watch is quite versatile I think but I do like tan or lighter colour straps so I will see what I can find.

I think you can't go wrong whatever you put on it. As you said, it's so versatile, just go with the color you like best. ;)

My 243 is on it's way. This one isn't a 243 but another submersible. I like these with nato straps.

To me it's always 24/22mm over 24/24. Tapering gives just the right balance. 24/24 with big buckle takes too much attention to itself and its away from the watch. Right kind of 24/22 compliments the watch and otherwise.

This is what I use most, but I have to say that after 087 arrived this one has been sitting firmly in the watch box.

Strap is from Bakeka.
