Pam 224 Firenze Chrono Strap Choices

[HyperEscape]

Hello,

Trying to buy my first PAM, have been through a lot of guidance and help articles with reviews. To be different with a blue dial, I have selected the following to be my choice for now,

I am also interested in getting and being able to change the straps on it. I am not sure that which straps would fit on this model, whether it is 22/24/26 MM.

Have shortlisted the following straps, among a lot of others for the while.

http://www.tswatchltd.net/12358-palt8404b-h-maker-panerai-rubber-strap-24mm.html

So can anyone guide me which of the straps would fit this watch, so I can restrict my selection to only the ones compatible.

Thanks.

Just read the PAM GUIDE of this watch before purchase

Regarding strap I recommend you go to a specialist strapmaker, not to buy another rep strap from a dealer

Get whichever you like, I recommend a black gator strap. Any 24mm will work. I'd suggest that you spend a good amount on the strap, as it's the thing that makes your watch feel gen. I suggest at least $100.

One thing I have noted in the straps (url links ) I have mentioned earlier is that none of them has a buckle.

So is it kinda usual with Pam straps that I have to choose strap and buckle separately.

Any suggested places where I can have ready to use straps ...for an initial start.......before I move to more customized luxury straps...
THANKS.

With this dial, I would go for a matching strap, leather or croc.
I could recommend you these ones from Peter Gunny, I have the Caitlin, photos don't do them justice! He's trusted strapmaker here.
You need 24/24 or 24/22mm strap.

Caitlin 6





Or the padded Deep Blue





Some french touch from canotage .



This hornback from ABP, but Eric (Donerix, Hamilton Leather Works) does the same things...

If you are buying another strap for your watch, don't buy rep one. If I had that watch, I would definitely put it on this:

It would match your dial beautifully and quality is worth additional money.

If it's too expensive and you are looking for something in $50 price range then ask this guy to help you out: http://www.steveostraps.com
He's a great guy and has one of the best price/quality ratio IMO.

As for the buckle, you can ask your TD to get you one, it should be around $15-20. Strap above is 'ready to use' strap.

These are nice suggestions Evora. +1 on Gunny, amazing craftmanship but a bit out of my price range.

Thanks for all the suggestions
