PAM 417 on what used to be my wallet  :laugh:


Interesting. Looks it is time for me to keep my old wallets as well. Wonder if James (Wotanxxxxx) will do the same?

takashi78,

Original Panerai but not to my model. The Assolutamente was issued with the boutique edition watches. Model number:

Model number strap length Tang buckle lug width/buckle width
MX006GJF 115/75 BA 27/22
MX006ZG8 125/75 BA 26/26
MX006ZBZ 115/75 BA 24/22
MX006ZC5 115/95 BA 24/22

Mine is the last one.

Wow bro nice work on the conversion of ur wallet into a strap.

After this I think we are gonna see more gucci, prada straps around.  :Laughing_on_floor:

Just curious, do u guys think there will be some patent rights issues if someone were to sell these LV straps? Does LV have watch straps in their collection?

Very happy to wear this today. Just modified JSAR. Swapped out the quartz ISA 1198 and fitted an ETA 2824-2. Not really a drop in replacement but worth it.

It'd be worthwhile to know how you performed the conversion.

I would bet my bottom dollar that Hobbit had already got all the step-by-step photos by the side and just waiting for the right time to pen his adventure. ;)

Come on mate, we can't wait. :Dancing_banana:
