Pmat 1 Posted November 15, 2015 Hi guys. The strap on my PAM 505 Composite has finally fallen to pieces. So, I am looking for a new, replacement strap. If possible, I'd prefer a strap of the same colour as in the picture below. Can anyone point me in the right direction?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoW13 19 Posted November 15, 2015 Hirsch Terra maybe?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted November 15, 2015 Looks good to me. I'd better find the sizing of my original strap and start scouring their site. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted December 10, 2015 Don't come in the right sizes for a PAM 505! The search continues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lejla 0 Posted February 6, 2016 It looks very nice and very quality straps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted February 8, 2016 Yeah, the original strap was excellent but has finally give up on me after extensive use. I bought a strap off ebay but the colour was all wrong...and the leather was as tough as old boots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madbadger 40 Posted February 8, 2016 If you send photos of the strap to Nero straps (found on this forum) he will make you one, I've got a 74 strap on its way from him $80 delivered to the UK. Once it's here I will post pictures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheTinMan 13 Posted February 10, 2016 I ordered a dark brown alligator off EBay a couple of weeks ago. I'll post pics on here once it arrives, should be any day now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flave 0 Posted February 11, 2016 I ordered 2 straps for my 505 in a tan leather that I think contrasts nicely with the dark case. One from JP Leatherworks and one from Fluco. Both are very nice quality without breaking the bank. If you're looking for a low-cost solution, check these out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pure B 0 Posted February 11, 2016 Look for a "BOB Vertigo Buffalo" on ebay. They are practicly the same as the asso straps that come with our reps. 26/22mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingdiver 0 Posted February 26, 2016 Omg this is so nice. Just worries the doc is different. So tempting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks guys. I've been away from home with work and have just returned. I'll chase up all suggestions as soon as I have time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pmat 1 Posted February 29, 2016 Look for a "BOB Vertigo Buffalo" on ebay. They are practicly the same as the asso straps that come with our reps. 26/22mm I've looked at all the suggested sites and BOBs are probably the closest - I can't believe it's so difficult to get the same strap that came with the watch! Anyway, this is the one that looks closest to the original strap.....what do you think?? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BOB-Vertigo-Buffalo-Watch-Band-Strap-for-Panerai-26-mm-5-colors-new-/291210769423?var=&hash=item43cd83b40f:m:m3hycXxfX1LHJWPHSsaxcYA http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BOB-Vertigo-Buffalo-Watch-Band-Strap-for-Panerai-26-mm-5-colors-new-/291210769423?var=&hash=item43cd83b40f:m:m3hycXxfX1LHJWPHSsaxcYA The issue is the colour of the stitching...it's way off but I suppose that beggars can't be choosers!

I searched 'Panerai strap 26mm' and there are hundreds more on there. Yeah, they all claim to be 'Panerai' or 'genuine Italian calf skin'! I ordered one a few weeks ago and I'd say it hadn't been within 100 kms of any bovine. But, I will try one of the links you've posted. I guess they're cheap enough...and who knows, I might just strike gold.....or genuine Italian calf skin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheTinMan 13 Posted March 7, 2016 Don't hold your breath for anything genuine. All I'm saying is that is the closest you'll get to the strap that came with your watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course I don't expect anything genuine! I'd just like something similar to what came with the watch. Fingers crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
