Strap I want costs half as much as the watch.

It's not a big problem when you consider that some have straps that cost more than the watch. :lol:
I'm planning on getting a PAM 112m from Trevor for $235 but the strap that comes with it has to go. Then I stumbled onto this strap which I think would make for a very handsome pairing, but it costs half as much as the watch.icard:
I really don't want to spend that much on a strap but so far I haven't found one quite like it that for me would be as perfect. Does anyone have this strap or has anyone bought an expensive strap for their rep?

This is not PAM exclusive. Breitlings, IWC's AP's , are all great for adding expensive, well made straps. The buckles / deployments aren't cheap either.
If you don't want your strap cost half as much as the watch, you should buy a more expensive watch.
Too bad our replicas are that cheap. Well, a crocodile strap simply costs its 200 bucks, a good leather strap may cost a hundred, too. Nothing to worry about, I'd say.

But those are really, really great straps. A tad overpriced, maybe, but well…*their straps are pretty much perfect.
Totally recommend k-straps he does great work and worth every penny. If you think that's bad take a look at the OEM Jules Verne strap prices

I disagree, you should simply find someone who sells great straps below retail . . .
Yes that is true but with all other brands most don't switch often and don't have a box filled with straps for 1 watch
Panerai is truly unique in that respect
And the aftermarket industry vendors offering straps that exceed the list price of oem straps is also exclusive to Panerai
First thing I did after receiving my 111N from Angus was to turn around and order a strap from Gunny.
I've accepted that this behavior will only feed into my addictive personality.

I can't get my mind off that shrapnel strap. I think it's gorgeous.

+100 K-Straps are some of the best I have ever owned. (and I own A LOT of straps. 50+)
Here are two Elephant straps he made me:
And if you think that is expensive you should try these babies... Each OEM JV Nubuck cost about 2x the price of the watch. WORTH EVERY PENNY.
Yep! Great service too, had my strap in just about 2 weeks from order.
Actually your photos are the reason I grabbed one up. Its a fantastic strap and I'm thankful and all but I'm gonna have to ask you to stop with the photos, because now im looking at hippo straps and its again all your fault :biglaugh:
