I love those straps. there is nothing like the smell of these either. I love the smell of fresh leather. BTW, I just recieved a nice little supprise from E myself today from the Big Balls special. Man there is nothing like a nice strap.

They look great, I'm ashamed to say I have a black GeF Bersagliere sitting in a drawer, never worn :oops:

I bought a MP at the same time and that has never been off.

Just might dig it out of the drawer after reading that though.

I've got one GeF and possibly a few on the way. Here is my one and only. There is something distinct about the look and feel of these babies.....

I have the dark brown GeF just sitting here waiting to go back on my 036 that's just been vaccum'd. Amazing straps. That Palombari is calling my name, too.

Pics will be posted when the 036 makes it home!

5.5mm GeF

I just received my 5.5mm for TC/Elliot and it sure is nice!! Thick, soft and really luxurious!! Very nice. It's my first TC strap and I'm sure I'll pick up more. I wish the MP stitchless in cognac was available in my size....

If you save the up the extra $40 (retail) you can have that strap custom made, as others in the catalogue - been thinking that myself with Zinc'd GPF buckle ... stitchless, hmm


Does the coupon work on custom straps?? If so, I'm there. I love the look of stitchless straps. I was just thinking of ordering a Micah stitchless.

Does anyone make a Ti buckle?? Zinc GPF would be nice too, but I'd really love a Ti buckle to finish off my upcoming 177H.

The coupon is not good for Daily Specials, Custom Straps or Gift Certificates.

Thanks!! I realized that right after I made my post. Then the cost increase is substantial. I guess I'll just wait till TC stocks the stitchless in a smaller size!!

Do you notice the "paint" on the side of my Palombari above? Is it normal for it to wear that way?

I saw that. Could you scrape off the rest of the chipping paint?? The rest of the strap looks great!

Nice couple Enzo, I also believe tan is THE strap color for vintage and historic PAMs, it somehow brings up the black dial and tan leather color visually complement those off-white and yellow-ish dial indices and numerals...IMO.

I believe the ideal PAM strap is high quality tan strap worn a lot with natural patina created during the "life" of the strap on your wrist...

cheers,
babola
