I am only buying for one or two OEM producers. I only wear comfortable straps not so much exotic one.
Diver strap is my favorite!

Great shot BTW.. Like you, there are a few that are my favorites and I found myself sticking to them...hence..less strap purchase..I think I am down to one or two a year...and always selling some if I am buying some..
Luckily, I haven't been bitten by the....

straps bug. Still and all, when I see a really....REALLY (my taste of course) nice one, I can't help getting it. I'm strictly an OEM man and my favourite are: JV, Assolutamente and the vintage straps (like the one for the Egiziano). I have a strap waiting...

I have tons of straps for my Panerais, but I have no Paneraid anymore... So, no more new straps for the moment. :) It is good when life is simple. :) Best, Nicolas

Have bought maybe about 10 over the years, but used maybe 5 of them. Got another 10 or so which are gifts from Panerai gatherings and birthdays from horo-mates. Think I am well covered for at least next few years. Only ones I would buy, would be non brown...

I enjoyed your comments and as I have quite a number of straps ( well in excess of a hundred) your thoughts and observations caused me to reflect on the subject ... I'd have to say it probably gets down to two issues a change in my tastes and a lack of re...
I'm even to tired to count them :))

honnestly I have some strap fatigue for Panerai , so now I started to collect them for my other watches :) :) :)
I have only one Panerai

I ordered my first custom strap nearly straight away after I got the watch. Then I got a OEM Gold Calf and a JV and I have another 4 other custom straps but I haven't purchased any more. Stopped for the moment as I am using the money for a cheaper alterna...

Slowed strap changes dramatically!

For radiomirs, gave up changing straps - too complicated for my tired eyes. For Luminors, I ocassionally still change straps - but Imho, once you have XXXXX ammo strap you are pretty much set - its second to none! Best, Palmasea Strap maker name edited ou...
To be honest, very few...

straps r worth a dollar to spend... OEM for me. I'd love to be able to change dress for my pam, but I won't spend a dollar for nothing... ;)
I do

a friend of mine makes very nice straps!
I bought a substantial number of straps over the years
By: Bill : October 30th, 2012-19:13
I find that I have enough of a stable that I am never short. I remember waiting two years for one strap to be made. So I guess I would say I am not buying any these days because I feel I have covered all the bases. Bill

Over the years, have managed to stock up about 20 straps, and there are only a few which I really like.... it is like a trial and error process. Some after market strap makers have not deliver what it is shown on their website, while some have deliver exc...
