Hi, I really hate leather straps and am looking for a strap like this for a PAM

eBay calls it a canvas nato however it's 2 pieces not one. Are there any custom strap makers or can this be found? And if there are custom strap makers can these be made with a PAM clasp?

Many strap makers offer canvas straps, the first that comes to mind is Donerix, but if you look around you will find others.
Usually canvas straps have leather on the underside, panerais are big and heavy watches and canvas alone could be subject to stretching and wearing. I think leather is needed to add thickness to the strap.

Since the PAM buckle is screw in, you can use it with any strap that has the correct size (e.g. 24 at the lugs and 22 at the buckle for 44 mm luminors)

Some members use proper nylon nato straps also, these can be easily found on ebay. You won't be able to use a PAM buckle with a nato.

Hope this helps :)

I also wanted to recommend Eric (Donerix). He does an amazing job, his prices are fair and I love his straps. Although I never had his canvas, I keep seeing them around the forum and they look great.

One more recommendation for Donerix. I have heard his canvas straps are basically the best.
