I would love to see a rep version of the Kevlar Velcro dive bracelet that came with gen 1616’s. You can’t even source that from Panerai.

Ive seen the Velcro textile bracelets on Puretime, but nothing like that 1616 dive bracelet.

They’re all over eBay. Or I should say they pop up all the time and relatively reasonably.

Are you sure they’re not available by panerai? I spoke to a concierge 30-40 days ago and they had them. At least in XL.

Interesting, I have seen sold ones on eBay but haven’t caught one yet.

Good point on the Concierge, I was just basing on their internet store. We have a boutique in Dallas, I may check.

Thanks!

As don said, dr Phil is a great option for limited colors. Are you in the USA? If so Yusk is a good option for canvas.

Was it always like this or only during covid times?
I am from Poland and I shipped quite a few straps to US, they usually arrive in 10-14 days. Phil is from Bulgaria so one would think the difference in shipping time should not be big.

donkacper - very nice, how do you like it? I have not tried a strap from Auby yet.
I like it a lot, very well made, leather is beautiful, it's a bit harder at the moment then for example Mays and Corrigia, but still very comfortable. And that curved buckle is great!

I’m not sure. I bought straps from him during Covid only. I send stuff all over Europe including Poland and it doesn’t take longer than 2 weeks for economy shipment.
