Overdue strap change - What do you think?
I’ve had this OEM Alligator nubuck strap for a couple of years but never fitted it on my Pam 372, till today. I am looking forward to the development of a darker patina as I break it in over time. But for now, do you think this combination of alligator nubuck works well...or are the calf variations (which is what I had) better?
Thanks for looking.

You really are elevating my impression of this combo!
I don’t think i’ll be changing it again anytime soon. Thank you.
The strap on the 47mm destro is a patina’d JV 26mm non tapered strap
JV strap pictured in the top picture and most to right. Other two are special tanning gator and not suede like the JV
Ah, okay, I see the differences.
But they are each very nice given their special feature.
The strap is nice, but my opinion is that calf would suit better.
The original, of course, of some others.
I am not at all a fan of alligator straps. Some due Look not to bad but to me they don’t fit to a panerai or let’s say to how I like to wear a panerai.
So my suggestion would be for the calf or an authentic 6152/1 strap from some of the strap makers.
The JV....
that's how your OEM is called (because it was introduced on PAM216 Jules Verne) is probably the most versatile strap Panerai even made. It looks great on almost every model and every model looks great with the JV on. That being said, I think that the 372 ...
Your opinion and candidness is not without weight, Sergio.
Then I’m curious, are you saying that the JV strap is better suited to a 587? (as an example) Thanks.
I think that the JV....
...(I own 3 or 4 of them) doesn't suit any 47mm Luminor or Radiomir 1940. The cases are too heavy. 47mm Radiomirs like 249, 232, 373 etc and 44mm Luminors, on the other hand are perfect for a JV. I used it on the 2, 36, 115, 117...etc with much personal s...
I agree... but I am one of those guys who try
To put a 47mm destro under a sleeve LOL!!! That’s when I put on the thinner JV
Oh, I misunderstood your point to be the converse.
I thought you were saying the 372 is too “dainty” for the JV strap...but instead you meant the JV is too dainty (or refined) for the 372 brute . It made more sense when I saw your example combinations. That being said, it is actually the contrast of chara...
