Does anyone of you happen to have a Carbotech. I'd love to see some strap variations.
Have a nice day!

I would put it on a black/graphite canvas. But that's just me

Thanks guys, I was thinking more of a picture of the watch plus strap. I have now ordered one directly from Panerai. 
Nevertheless, many thanks for the quick reply.

Hello KOT1917. I have a Noob 127 but I do not have the right 26mm buckle with the lettering on the side. Do you know wher I can get one?
My first from Kyros, it won’t be the last one I’m sure.

Nope - I have 2 in progress on Cordes' bench... These are special ones as they are made from 2 variations of the rare 'Metta' leather. If you are not familiar with it - read this:Come on guys! Am I the only one here with strap buying problem??
Quite an incredible story - note that the article is from 2002, so the hides are now 236 years old. Cordes managed to acquire a small hide from a collector that he has been asking to buy from for years.
I'll post more pictures soon.

New straps in today, great quality at a stupid cheap price from Thailand…
Please. could you tell me info about these straps?
Txs.
I know that the topic of Corrigia has been discussed many times but I feel that I need to add something.
Last year I purchased a Gruppo Gamma strap from them taking advantage of one of their discounts.
I received a strap that was ok, I wore it many times and then I noticed that 2 parts of the strap are aging completely differently. There is a visible difference in the structure and leather color as you will see in the pic.
I sent the picture to Corrigia, asking if this is normal and if maybe I can treat the strap with something to make them look more alike.
They responded saying that they will send me a new strap. So I thought to myself that finally they are behaving in a proper way, even though I did not ask for a new one.
So now I received a new strap, well, it’s completely different leather color and also orange stitching, no idea why, looks like a completely different strap model, not to mention the quality, you can see how the stitching is done for example.
Anyway, even before this I was pretty sure that I won’t buy from them anymore and now I am convinced that it was a right decision.
I’ve tried so many different strapmakers in the last year that I have no doubt Corrigia is not only poor quality and overpriced but also their customer service is a joke.
Take a look at the pics.

As a follow up to the Corrigia story, I've told them that I didn't like what they sent me as replacement because it is a totally different strap and that I will send it back, there was no comment from them after that.
So I did send it back, the package was waiting at their post office to be picked up for over 3 weeks, they didn't pick it up, now it's on it's way back to me. So besides the great straps the service is also premium. Looks like a sure "Do not buy ever again" for me
