Description
About the Leather: I created this epic super soft tan Panerai strap 100% by hand and hand stitched it, as with all of my straps. This is a distressed vegetable tanned leather with a very soft temper. Being a distressed leather, the top finish will show signs of wear, scuff marks, fat lines, grain creases and color variations. These elements add character to the leather. Furthermore, this super soft tan Panerai strap wears very comfortably on the wrist. The color is a whiskey tan tone but shows variation across the surface. The inner is a lighter tone than the surface. I utilized beige thread in an open ended pattern to lend a classic aesthetic. This strap design features one fixed and one floating keeper. The edges of the strap are distressed.
This strap ships by default with a vintage style brushed stainless pin buckle. Additionally, the color palette of this tan Panerai strap ensures a fit with all dial and lume colors. Pictured above, you may see this handmade strap on the Panerai Luminor PAM00632. Finally, this strap will age beautifully as you wear it and therefore will no doubt become an essential part of your strap collection.

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. The only tapered straps that I make are 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. 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.
