Description
About the Leather: As with all of the straps that I create, this burgundy Panerai strap is completely handmade from start to finish. For this project, I selected a flexible chrome tanned leather with a semi-matte finish. This unique leather allows for a near OEM thickness that subtly compliments the 44mm Panerai case. This leather is of a soft-medium temper. This strap features a soft crease along the edges. The design features one floating keeper and one fixed. I selected beige thread for this strap, and you may request a different color if you wish. This burgundy Panerai strap is 100% hand stitched in a boxed pattern. Additionally, this strap comes with an extra row of stitching at the buckle.
I designed this strap in an OEM style, with the tip of the fold terminating near the buckle for added strength near the lugs. This strap ships with a vintage style pin buckle as pictured. Additional buckle options are available from the drop down menu. Above, you may see this strap paired with the PAM00775 Luminor Base White Dial. As usual, if you wish to use your OEM buckle, you may select the “no buckle” option from the buckle drop down menu.
Measurements: This strap is 24/24, with a thickness of ~3.4mm.
What We Include: Watch strap, sewn curved pin buckle, one wooden gift box.

Additional Information: The 44mm Panerai Luminor is the true workhorse of the Panerai lineup, and by far has the most potential for aftermarket strap creation. While larger 47mm case models demand thicker straps, the 44mm Luminor case is more flexible and works with a variety of different strap thicknesses. With that in mind, I make most of my 44mm case Panerai straps with thinner thread. When I select the thread and spacing, I take into consideration the thickness and temper of the leather.
Most of my 24mm custom straps for 44mm Panerai models utilize a vintage Panerai style pin buckle. However, you will find that many straps in this section also have additional buckle options. My general design philosophy for 24mm straps is dual keepers of generous width, box stitching, and a thickness or 3.5 to 5.5mm depending on leather temper.
Finally, all of my 24mm Panerai straps for 44mm cases are 24/24mm, without a taper. The only tapered straps that I make are for Radiomir cases. Further, my design preferences for the 44mm Panerai case tend towards longer buckle sides and shorter bottom sides. Above all, the aim is to achieve as much balance as possible. Additionally, the stitching margins will be thinner on my 24mm Panerai straps than they are on my 47mm Panerai straps.
I pride myself in each aftermarket Panerai strap that I produce and perform the entire process by hand without templates or machines of any sort. I use the absolute basic tools, the same tools that I used as a boot maker for nearly two decades. In conclusion, as a result of the handmade nature of these straps, no two are identical.
