PAM 288k on which strap?

[ryllz]

Hey all,

Can't decide which looks best on this 288k... Which is your pick? Green Landa or the Tan/Light Brown Nero strap? If you wear it with a different strap then show off your watch! Need some inspiration. I have a distressed black also.. but not too fond of black straps..

Light brown for me from these two but this is what I would choose: http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=170173

He has a great taste and strap choices but if he left it on asso, I would too. I also prefer it on asso but if that's not working for you, my second option would be black croc with white stitching.
It's too elegant watch to put on thick and rugged strap.

I would not use elegant for a bulbous PAM chrono. IWC Portuguese yes. This is more beefy/sporty and I'd go with the green strap. The stitching matches the dial nicely.

Great link @Shelby! It pushed me over the edge to buy a 390. Now where should I look hmmmm

I actually see the merits of Shelby's post.. just couldn't pull off my distressed black strap or asso tapered strap on my wrist.. it looked "funny" to me.. which was the reason i decided to invest in some beefy straps.. Like you cromag i thought that the green landa matched the 288k dial nicely but now wondering if i should get yet another strap for it... maybe a kain heritage gray with black stitching?!? hmmmm..

Cromag for the 390 i got it from Ryan at InTime.. Noob version.. he shipped it quick and provided QC pics quickly!

I went for a Peter Gunny Caitlin 3, and when I wish something lighter, the Egypt Series

@evora great choice on the Caitlin 3.. i may actually have to invest in some gunny's soon for the PAM's i got from you..

Glad to help bud! Have you checked Sead's special 390? Not sure if he still have them in stock but I got it for my girlfriend some time ago and it's amazing watch for the money, $155 if I'm not wrong. Wasn't searching about flaws but when you have it in hands it's great! Would get another one to myself but better to borrow it sometimes from her and invest in another PAM or AP.
Take a look in his section, should be few pages away.

This really opened my eyes. I have always had mine on a very dark or black strap, the light straps make it look like an entirely different watch!
