Panerai Luminor 44mm Strap 24/24 “Camel Tan” Soft

Description

About the Leather:  I created this soft camel tan Panerai strap 100% by hand as with all of the straps you see listed on my site.  For this project, I selected a chrome tanned leather with a rustic beige surface.  This leather is thick and yet soft.  The surface features fat lines and minor distressing.  For stitching, I selected a beige thread and completed the stitching in a boxed pattern.  The edges of this strap are unfinished.  Additionally, this strap features one floating keeper and one fixed.

This camel tan Panerai strap ships with a sewn flat GPF style stainless steel buckle with no engravings.  The buckle above is bronzed, which is an additional option from the drop down menu.  Pictured above, you may see this soft strap on the Panerai PAM00775 Luminor Base 44mm.  Finally, thanks to the neutral color, you have a great deal of flexibility with matching cases and dials.   The strap in the photos above measures 125/80 for your reference.  *Buckles may also be customized with engravings on a consultation basis at no extra charge.

Measurements:  This strap is 24/24, with a thickness of ~5mm.

What We Include:  Watch strap (top, bottom), sewn 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 in the drop down menus above.  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.  Furthermore, the only tapered straps that I make are usually for Radiomir cases.  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.  Additionally, 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.
