Just for the pleasure to share a new set of straps...

I’m happy with the arrival of this wonderful set of straps by Master Strapmaker Kostas.


It is a close reproduction of the historical and well known “74” straps well known by Paneristi and scholars of Panerai history. 


It is said that Devil is in the small details and this is a good example. Kostas even reproduces the “error” in the stitching of the original and the buckle and other construction details of early original straps. 


This little big things are appreciated by Panerai nerds of course and I feel delighted to wear these wonderful set on my trusty and beloved Pam 372. Thank you so much for a great job!

Fabulous strap Abel...
