Recently brought the 082 from Davidsen, i love the watch but im stuck as to what strap to put on it which will really compliment the blue dial, has anybody got any suggestions or better yet, pictures.
There's a free leather strap with panerai buckle for the winning suggestion!

I'd try to get a gen croc strap or the next best croc strap available in the same dial color (blue obviously).

Though I've seen gens with blue buffalo strap an it ain't so bad.

Hope this helps.

I'd try the carbon fiber strap with blue stitching from TC

Carbon Fiber straps with Blue stitching for Panerai Watches 24/22 in 115/75


Or............if you really want to do it RIGHT...

get ahold of Tootall, and have him make you a custom blue leather strap!

**that's what I'd do!!**

Another vote for Tan. Mine is on a GeF from Elliot and it looks very nice:

I have a similar PAM with the same color dial. I put a BOB Vertigo tan suede on it...It looks awesome. Sorry no pics of it right now though.

A black strap with navy blue stitching and blue finished sides looks good.

A lighter tan nearer the yellow/orange range will look good as well.

And here is a little paint.net fun to help you decide:

Think this one should look nice with the 082:

Blue Croc or MP1 ... I have a Blue leather 1860 (not shown):

Now THAT font is what I'm talking about! Mine looks nowhere near that bold. I've got a new one on order, though. Hopefully it's better.

I haven't had time to finish the other end, but this one would probably look good:

As you can see mine has the same problem but i console myself with the fact that the blue face and C1 lume look great.

I vote for the OEM Panerai alligator strap... jst got me one and it looks awesome! Sometimes the strap almost looks black, sometime absolutely blue... just like the dial :)

Brad, love that MP1 on your 082. Another option that would look great would be that "camel" colored hide that Savage has used:

@Yellow - that's cool. I can see myself w/ one of these. Where from and how much?

I may visit Tourneau in Sept!

I note you have the C1 dial - looks WAY better than my 1st gen C3 - I am waiting for the C1 replacement from DSN (being sent next week I hope):

Clearly, the font of the 1st generation was better than the C1 dial. I think his replacement is V1 font and V3 C1. Let's hope. I also have one on the way.
