I'm thinking of a Fletch03 or the Fletch06 so I'd be curious to see what you received.

This is the Fletch04 Master's Edition and the L23 Bentrovato Blue LE. The Fletch04 is pretty close but the L23 is a much darker strap compared to the photos.




The texture on this Squadr08 is different because he used a structured leather; which produces the stipple effect you see.

I'm thinking we should have a page showing the straps on website and what they actually are. I usually refer to their Instagram or Facebook page to what it actually looks like.

I agree with this.

I was actually thinking of creating a “gen panerai strap thread” too because a lot of threads and dms fly around this group asking “is this gen?” And in a few months when someone posts it again, it’s nice to be able to say “go see the thread and compare it to the pics in there”. In my opinion.

I tried looking at IG but that seems misleading too. I only found I think 1 pic of Fletch06 there and it's also different from what I received.

Anyway, if you can wait, I will post some pics of this strap on Saturday.

Ok guys, as promised earlier here are some pictures of the Corrigia Fletch06 that I just received.
Beautiful strap but is it close to the pics on website? I let you decide :)

IMHO the strap looks more vintage on the website. Still a great piece.

If you hadn't said it should be the Fletch 06, I wouldn't have recognized it !!
All the NEW straps from Cengi are extremely different from the straps on his web site (color and general appearance) I have a lot old corrigias and they look as on his pictures but the new ones DON'T!
Also on other forums this problem are discused and all are pissed...
The last strap I bought was the brelli z12 compare it ... the color is also very different > conclusion > for now that was my last purchase! :mad:

How long did it take for them to change the look? Did you treat the leather with any balsams or something?

Maybe since they changed their branding on the back?
No, until now it's sitting untouched in my strap box...:thinking:

Wow your z12 is very close to my z11, In my opinion corrigia strap does not worth the price from my latest purchase.

Does anyone know of a USA vendor ( private, Etsy, etc.) that makes this type of soft supple leather strap?
Thanks!

Hey guys. So the new strap came in from corrigia and here are some pics. I can see how maybe this might be the same leather. Also I told them it was for the 1118 (ideally) and to use
his judgement. The thread color is definitely different. These are supposed the be Vecchio Marine straps.


Here it is on the 1033 and 1118 just so you can see.

Here are the straps together under different lighting conditions.

Another 3 strap commission in the works with Cordes - needed a couple of straps to use with my Ti 44mm PAMs. First up is a brown + grey Badalassi.
