Straps for 183
Hello [Fellow] Panerai Fans:
Please indulge me here. After years of wondering what the attraction to Panerai is all about I've just acquired my first. My 183 came with the standard brown calf strap, as well as with a nice light brown oiled leather strap. Unfortunately, both are too short for my fat wrist. So, now's my chance to order something special in my size. My Dornblüth 99.3 in black dial/brown strap is my daily wearer, so I'd like to do something different (from a color palette perspective). It seems to me that black crocodile would make for a sporty complement to the relatively refined Radiomir case, but I fear this is too boring, or expected. Other questions include matching vs. contrasting stitching, cut edges vs. roll edges? Please guide me with your thoughts and pictures!
Thanks in advance,
Roger
