They’re all nice and super high quality ! Amazing contest !

Wow! Very nice contest.. I’d love one of those straps around my arm.

Nothing beats a ‘camel’ with a buckle ! thanks Robert great gesture I’d be happy to try one out :))

Great looking straps… count me in 🙂

What a great offer, count me in!!

A Camel would suit my Pam perfect!

Thanks!

I would love to get one of those !

Very cool! Would love to win one 🙂

I’ve become a bit of a watch snob these days, and undoubtedly so due to the likes of Panerai, IWC, Bell&Ross, etc. etc. Not too many watches co. can hold a flame to Panerai(In my opinion) these days, and rightfully so. These awesome aftermarket straps out there like these make it even more enticing!

oef! Looks like a great strap..
Just came home celebrating the dutch victory!
Good luck everyone!

Geez, a beautiful strap giveaway, and in exchange all we have to do is visit your wonderful site for free…? Life’s just not fair, is it?

I think the light-brown one just hits the perfect note: very classy, with a lot of warm overtones to prevent it from looking too cool for comfort.

Keeping my fingers crossed here… For The Netherlands first of all, of course, but also for this site running for many more years, and, heck, for one of those gorgeous straps (I say away with modesty!). :o)

I’ll take a Cappuccino. Thanks for the giveaway.

Thanks for sharing your insights on watches. Being from Denmark you tend to focus on what Kristian Haagen has to say, but I like to compliment his stuff with your more thorough and detailed postings…..

Would love to spice up my Panerai with one of those straps 😉

Perfect! The patina on the bottom-most strap is amazing!

Great offer!! Keep up the interesting blogging, really great read!

Sweet band. Thanks for the generous gift offer.

Was thinking of selling my PAM111, maybe a new strap can keep me wearing the watch a bit longer 😉

I found this give away contest quite interesting, as I am sort of obsessed with straps and the strap/bracelet choice on a watch. When I look at a timepiece, I can often isolate it from the strap and then visualize the numerous possibilities for it — and the strap/bracelet has huge influence on the outlook of a watch!

I’ve got all kinds of straps for my several watches and in most of them I have more than one strap so that I can change its ‘personality’; in many I even have straps from other brands/sources: I’ve got a rare Girard-Perregaux pinstripe fabric strap on my Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Grande Reserve that looks fabulous on a black or charcoal suit; I’ve got several NATO and nylon straps on both my TAG Heuer Autavia reeditions that make them look even more vintage; I’ve got a chocolate calf strap with round edges from Baume & Mercier to better fit my beautifully classic Chronoswiss Klassik Chronograph… and so on and so on. And I just love the fast strap changing system on my Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Extreme W-Alarm ‘Tides of Time’ that enables me to go from rubber to calf in 30 seconds.

My most recent watch is a Linde Werdelin Oktopus, just 2 weeks old; in Linde Werdelin’s case, there no way I can use straps from other sources, because of the unique architecture of the case and strap system adopted. I’ve always noticed from the beginning how great Linde Werdelin straps look; they’re tailormade for Linde Werdelin timepieces and the details exude a great deal of sophistication and good taste. On my Oktopus (the titanium & black bezel version) I opted for a black textile strap — I chose it over the great looking rubberized calf because I have that kind of strap on my Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore; I also chose it because it’s a sporty strap, waterproof… though I’ll definetely be wanting some more straps (tracked calf; pointed calf) so that I can use my Oktopus in different circumstances!

Finally, I must say I like those MP straps a lot because I grew tired of croco straps, as they are too ‘formal’; I’ve always been a fan of leather straps and these are just the way I like them: thick and with ton-sur-ton stitching!

Best,

Miguel

I want this so bad!!

Bella Bella what a strap for my Panerai GMT!
