I see that there is a 024 club, but none for a Radiomir. Let's get one going.
Please include strap size, mods, etc.

Let me introduce my precious 288k from H factory. No mods carried out, just my watchmaker cleaning and oiling the whole movement up.

Strap is a Simona gator in 26/22mm with a polished buckle.

This is my 288k. Straight up stock with a Heroic 18 buckle and strap. A proper 27mm taper strap for ANY Rad is so very important.

And a close up of the beautiful texture on the gunny strap.

The picture that got me hooked with the PAM 232. It is a courtesy of BigChief from RG and I've "stolen" it from his thread. Hope he does not mind, but it looks freaking awesome!

That's a Simona seal, right? Can you get some more pics of it please? I'd love to see that in more details, never seen one apart from there website. Beautiful it should be!

Yup, Just got it recently, will try to take some nice pics today
Incredibly soft and comfortable, has Nubuck or suede like hand
I thought it would be like a shark strap but it is so much nicer
As nice as any strap I have ever seen

Love the 232 as well, but I don't think it is repped well???

The new DSN is quite a good one, it has 1 major flaw and some minors:
1.: CB is totally wrong, it has 6609 instead of 6659, it has no tamped numbering and its not polished around the edge but purely flat and brushed...
2.: crown tube is longer and not polished
3.: lug bars are not polished

All can be corrected, especially shortening and polishing the tube along with the lug bars is not a big deal for a modder. Getting the correct CB could be tricky, but again, apart from us and a selected few, who on Earth knows that.

Edit: DSN can supply a more relevant and correct caseback, I wonder why he is not offering it in the first place...

I'm pretty much on the fence to pull the trigger, just have a couple "small projects" I need to close/finish before that.

And here is my 288k on a SanDave ammo. I wanted to sell this strap, I did not like it on my Fiddy.... fortunately after 2 weeks there were no takers on it and seeing some Radiomirs on ammo I gave it a try.

It has a sewn-in, polished and curved pre-v buckle which matches the Radiomir case pretty much! Love this combo, just can't wait the strap to age a bit and get some decent patina.

Hi omegagmt
Interesting thread
I encourage all Panersiti to participate.
I have no Radiomirs, therefore I cannot publish my pics. Sorry
