Panatime Strap for PAM 288?

[Stealthy]

Hi guys, anyone have purchased strap from Panatime for the 288?

I'm considering betwee these two:

Do you think the original alligator worth the more than double price tag?

How's the quality of Panatime strap compared to Gunny or Malio?

Thanks in advance

The original gator is much more soft than the printed calf. Less than usd 100 for a nice gator is a steal, but you cannot compare these to Malio or Gunny. They sell vintage straps whereas this Panatime is an elegant, classy strap. IMO both fits the Rads well, I would gladly buy from Panatime. They have a great customer service and their prices are very good. Also, I would stay awa from printed calf straps, just bear in mind that your watch is replicated of a nice and expensive Panerai ;-)
