Strapaholics - here's a place for us to discuss our addiction

Hello all. I am a newer member who added a beautiful Rubber B strap to my Pam 111. I am considering a brown leather strap as well for a different look. Does anyone have a Vintager strap? I am looking at the Sentinel Gold model. I have 7.5” wrist and am thinking of the 135/85 length. Any opinions or photos are appreciated. Many thanks!

Recommend his Horween Harvest. 85/135 should be a good fit for your wrist!

This straps are nice that they have the curve to attach to the case gapless but i think their price is too high for what they are ,Other then that they are super !

Related topic but different spin - we all acknowledge the strap addiction is real. We all partake in the multitude of craftsmen/women older and newer, who have made this addiction real and so much fun and different aesthetics for our Panerais.

But as we accumulate these piles of glorious leather straps - what are people’s methods for storing the hordes of leather accessories? I have a strap roll which holds 15. Have seen pics of some which look to hold many more. Where are you getting your strap storage solutions, and any innovative solutions out there?

I have a drawer in the library where I keep my watches that I lined with toolbox rubber mat. Most of my collection of high end straps stay in there while not mounted on watches. All the others are in a cedar box in another cupboard.

Hello, here is my first leash, loaned by my teacher "gerardito" many years ago, shark skin, I still remember how I noticed the "spikes" when I put my finger on the counter.
I do not remember the manufacturer but you can see that years later it is still in good condition and we are talking at least of the year 2013.

Lovely strap and thank you for sharing. FYI it was made by Simona DiStefano who sadly passed away last year. The buckle of your strap has her earlier 'S Straps' logo engraved into it which was used before she switched to the more common DiStefano logo with the silhouette of the Duomo.

Thank you very much for the information, because it will have to be kept as part of the story, I sadly saw the news of his death on the networks.

Hello again, today it's time to present this strap from the brand that I've never worn before, I love its texture and how soft it is…
