KBH 7 Posted December 2, 2010 Nice. Is your gen croc strap as short as the rep strap? Anybody with a 7" wrist is going to be out of luck. It pisses me off that the second hole is too big and the third hole is too small. And I had a gen croc strap that I planned on using but the Panerai clasp fits differently on both ends of the strap than a normal one. It's going to take a custom strap made just for the Panerai deployant. Otherwise, it's an awesome watch. I have 7.25 wrist and it fits perfectly on the 4th strap hole. 7.5 would be the cut off. Looking again the 4th hole which is the middle hole is a little too tight. The third hole from the end is too loose and then the tab just barely sticks into the keeper. And my wrist I think is about 6 3/4". I'm thinking the gen croc you have must be a little bit longer. The two strap sides are 75 and 110mm. Is that about the same as yours or shorter, if you don't mind checking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted December 2, 2010 My wrist is 8", and I'm planning to put it on SS bracelet. Radiomirs don't come with bracelets Luthier..we are working on your Panerai For Dummies guide.. Ebzen, I can teach you a few things about Panerai, it was a joke, stupid!!! You, not me, bought a $415 watch that was offered for much less next day, correct? So, work harder on Guide... and put it on your table near your bed, and read every night. I don't like Radiomir PRECISELY because of these tiny wire lugs!!! Try to change the strap, I'll have fun, watching. Silverspeed... I expected at least SOME sense of humor from you... Disappointed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you consider $11 ($278+$106+$20=$404?) less much less then you got me..lol.. I do not doubt that you are an eminence in all things Panerai, but there is no need to be so defensive.. Btw, just changed the strap and it took me about less than two minutes..have you ever changed the strap on a radiomir before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the way, just talked to Mary, she has same watch, same strap (!!!) for $288. Same clasp too. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deja123 0 Posted December 3, 2010 $288 incl strap?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverspeed 10 Posted December 3, 2010 Are you sure Luthier....?? $288 with the gen croc strap?? So without the gen croc strap she sells it for what....$188 ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deja123 0 Posted December 3, 2010 ...i can't belive that price 288$ would Be without strap or the Watch has Not the Same quality ?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pentax 0 Posted December 3, 2010 Luthier are you sure if it's the best version with clear ar coating etc... Because someone asked Mary before and she said that she could not get her hands onbthat one ...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted December 3, 2010 Luthier are you sure if it's the best version with clear ar coating etc... Because someone asked Mary before and she said that she could not get her hands onbthat one ...... She got it today. And who's talking about "genuine" croco strap??? Where did you see a rep. dealer supply a watch with "genuine" strap??? Enlighten me, please. I got 4-5 pics from her. Ofcourse, Ebzen's pictures are much better. But the watch and strap - the same, from the same factory. Here it is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverspeed 10 Posted December 3, 2010 Luthier, the 288 is definitely being offered with 2 different quality straps One a regular rep strap, calf leather (at best) with croc print and a genuine croc strap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebzen02 341 Posted December 3, 2010 From what I hear the rep croc is superb though.. but, yes, they are offering a gen croc.. I think some dealers are out though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aren 27 Posted December 3, 2010 How did I miss this thread? Gorgeous watch and strap combination Ebzen. Very nicely put together. Wear it in good health. Nice photos too. I also liked the vintage staps in the link. All great looking...don't know how I missed this a couple days ago. Thanks for sharing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This one Mary has is with the rep strap, not gen croc strap others have available as an upgrade. $288 for that one is about the same price as everywhere else...
