which malio strap for PAM 390N ?

[MarkMarky]

Hi guys, I have 390N but the strap size is short for my wrist. Looking for high quality strap and found Malio straps. I hope the quality is good. I figured the three options as the best suited for 390N.

1)Initiale
2)Initiale 2
3)Signature

Anyone have combination with these straps? Which one looks the best? Which is better - Padded or Not Padded?

Please suggest. Thanks

IMO signature dark brown is perfect for PAM 390
You will not get disappointed

+1 for signature.
They all look nice, but dark brown will match the dial better imho

Thanks I like Signature the best. Was torn between Asso rep and Signature.

My vote goes to initiale 2.
Matches the dial nicely.

Malio straps are very nice. I have some of them and the strap build and feel is really well done.

this is the Kampf Schwimmer, but it might give you an idea of what he can do to the strap. This has the aging on the buckle and roughened edges that he put in the strap to give a more vintage look.

Are the Malio straps soft? I don't want them stiff or hard.

They break in nicely. It would depend on what you compare them against for softness, but the Malios I have are soft to wear, but look rough due to the model strap made and the edge roughness.

Thanks for info, I have a gen LumTec strap http://www.lum-tec.com/straps/st308-24.html Not sure if anyone knows about them on here.

I just got a strap for my 390 last night too. I went with a SNPR Horween Old World. Out of your three, I prefer the signature.

Which one did you get? Can you share a link pls?

 

[MarkMarky]

Can anyone help me? I don't think buckle is needed with the strap for the new order? Can I remove the PAM rep asso buckle and put it on the new strap? Easily?

Your rep strap is most likely 24 mm at lugs and 22m at buckle, but the Malio strap will be 24-24mm
You will need a 24mm buckle

Thanks ALE!

Can we buy 24mm PAM buckle from any place?

 

[Cheesemonger]

24mm buckles are around in m2m from what I have seen. However, Malio may make the strap 24/22 for you. I had him make the strap for me as 26mm at lugs and 24mm at buckle as I like the tapered strap better.

Is Malio around ?

Malio hand makes his straps to your needs. So whatever size you need just let him know. I suggest his Asso strap but ask him to use tight stitching for a more classy look.

Is Malio still doing business? No word via email...for a week.

I am sure he is around. He may have taken the holiday for New Years, but I am sure he will get back to you.

After wait of over a month, finally got Signature series Malio Strap for my PAM 390. The strap is very comfortable and worth the price. Recommended. Couple of pics..

What you guys think?
