Thinking of picking up a 351 as a christmas present (to myself :p ) and im really lost on picking a strap I think would go well with it. There's hardly any pics online it seems of 351's on different straps.

It needs to be a dressier strap, so no ammo styles, Ostrich?

Possibly just dark brown croc on a deployant.

Hmm,

suggestions welcome!

Great choice there to buy a 351.....I have it under my radar too but will wait for a bit for my CC to cool down.....I had this Kain strap in my mind for the 351.....Somehow I see that their is a bluish tint on the uncharged lume on the numerals on the 351 dial....I thought a blue stitch would really set it off......what do you think about this Kain strap?

The blue stitch could be a tad lighter but I can't find a lighter blue thread.

Sorry to jump in on your thread but how's the tobacco brown dial compared to gen? I'm either going to buy the 351 or 177. I need a titanium and these two are amazing!!

I tried one of the 351's on at the NY store and fell in love with it on the gator strap it comes with, like your second image. Very deep vintage brown and super supple.

Hi Bones
I think that for dressier strap the brown croco is awesome
It looks impressive. I like the watch a lot with this strap.

OEM Assolutamente for this all the way! Dressy enough but also casual enough. It was worth the $230 I paid for it.

The KH that watchaholic posted above is my pic, it's also a very nice strap but it has unfinished edges and was a little to casual for this watch IMO. No matter what you choose this watch is a winner!

I was in my local Tourneu store the other day and the gen dial and rep are super close. Don't fall for people that say the gen dial is darker, look at the gen pic from risti below, what do you think ;)

Gottahavearolex, When I first saw the pics of the 351 over at puretime i definitely thought the dial on the gen was darker but after seeing that shot it looks like it might be spot on. I know on one of the other tobacco brown Pam reps people were complaining that the dial was too light so I was just wondering if this was the same. Thanks for the comparison!

No problem bro. It really is close Warren! I was very pleased to see that it wasn't as far off as originally thought. It's definitely one of my fav Pams. If you choose it over the 177 you won't be disappointed.
