It's Spring time and time for a strap rotation.


I've just completed two new builds and have a two week vacation in sunny climes coming up - so time to pack the travel cases! Seemed like a great Iphone 5 photo opportunity :unsure:


My stock v2 243 will be the 'wet' watch of choice


Recently assembled 417 hybrid will add a touch of colourful fun and glamour. need to set the correct time...........


My new custom 005m DLC will add some stealth variety :dry:


I've been a long time fan of Distefano straps and my box is pretty well occupied by them.


As a long term Paneristi I've learned that true quality counts in strap selections - after all variety is the name 'of the Pam game'

Simona makes a fantastic product -- certainly near the top of the heap. Nice pictures!

If you have ever questioned "why buy an expensive strap for a replica watch". Those pictures are your answer.
Beautiful.
Simona's leather is my favorite. Congrats on some great combos.

Nice looking watches, but you do know that Simona does not make the straps herself, right?

Nice strap!

Simona gator best at 24/22 or 24/24?

Thanks

I normally buy in 24/24 from DS

They offer some tapered gators so I guess 24/22 is possible
