Description

About the Leather:  I handcrafted this Radiomir strap with 100% authentic seal leather. Seal leather is soft, light weight and waterproof in addition to being sturdy and flexible.  Seal leather is a popular choice for gloves, clothing and hats in areas of the world with large seal populations.  I designed this seal leather Radiomir strap with a 26-22mm taper.  This strap features one floating keeper and one fixed, with a buckle that is sewn in place.  In addition, I can make this strap with an OEM style trapezoidal buckle by request.  This seal skin Panerai strap features white hand-stitching in a boxed pattern.  The edges of this seal skin strap feature a soft crease.

The sides of this strap are burnished to a nice uniform finish.  Pictured above you may see this black seal skin Panerai strap on the PAM00183 Radiomir Black Seal.  When it came time to showcase this black seal leather strap, there was no doubt that the Radiomir ‘Black Seal’ is the natural choice.  Thanks to the neutral black/white colors of this strap, it can be matched to a wide variety of Panerai Radiomir dials and cases.  Buckle options are available from the drop down menu.  This leather is fairly scarce and costly, so a limited number of straps will be produced.  Finally, the strap pictured above measures 125/80 and features a brushed pin buckle for your reference.

Measurements:  Width 26mm at the case and 22mm at the buckle area. Thickness ~3mm.

What We Include:  Watch strap (top, bottom), brushed vintage style pin buckle, one wooden gift box.

Additional Information:  For each Panerai watch, I have a different design philosophy when it comes to making straps.  The Radiomir is my historical favorite among all Panerai cases.  I bought my first Radiomir nearly two decades ago and did not start making straps for them until many years later when I neared retirement.  The Radiomir is a fun and challenging case to make custom straps for. 

On larger Panerai cases in the 47mm range, I tend to use thicker thread with wider spacing. For the Radiomir I employ a mixture of both thicker and thinner threads, and both tight and wide spacing.  When determining the thread thickness and spacing I take into account the characteristics of the leather.  As a general rule, I tend to make my custom Radiomir straps in thicknesses ranging from 3.5 to 5.0mm. The average thickness will be somewhere in the middle.

Due to the wire lugs of the typical Panerai Radiomir case, I tend to lean towards leathers of a slightly softer and more pliable temper.  From a design perspective, I tend to utilize a taper of 27-22 or 26-22 depending on the leather.  If you have a larger 47mm Radiomir case, like a PAM323, I highly recommend going with straps of 4.5mm thickness or above.  I have even designed some custom Radiomir straps specifically for the 47mm Radiomir cases that have a bolstered taper where the strap meets the case.

Please do not hesitate to contact me prior to the purchase of your custom Panerai Radiomir strap.  I would be happy to guide you on your journey towards the best bespoke strap for your individual needs. I pride myself in each aftermarket Panerai strap that I produce.  We complete 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.  As a result of the hand made nature of these straps, no two are identical.
