I do have a strap from Panatime but I dont really like it. But then they have too many straps and I could have chosen a "wrong" strap. :(

I m no expert in strap. But so far my most expensive strap is from JnS and I like it.

oh i juz drop by JNS to take a look too, but nothing of my liking

My story is I didnt like pam cos they all looked the same.

Then I wanted to get a diver one day. And tried the dssd. Somehow it didnt have wrist presence despite being 44mm. Quite disappointed and so just gey kiang tried the pam024. Mesmerized. Actually even now I'm not sure if I should have gotten a pam24 instead of the 305, but yeah the 305 sits nicer on my wrist, and I like the see thru case back.

A lot of ding-dongs and finally decided on the 305. Maybe I shld just get a pam24 also. I dunno.

The strap poison is a story for another day......
The Ida story also......

Wrist shot for today. Back at work.

My story similar to you. Used to think that there is nothing special bout pams. They looked the same basically.

Was considering the explorer 39mm cos i wanted something that looks clean. Afterall i already have a few watches with a bezel. Was wandering around and decided to visit the pam boutique. So itchy hand go and try on the 42mm luminor and radomir. So ended up in this sticky situation. Wasnt thinking of buying. But can sense the poison taking effect again....

There are quite a lot of shops selling Panerai Strap.

I got mine from 1 of the shops at Sunshine Plaza.

Wore my pammy for the 3rd time n saw a hairline scratch on the side :( any idea how to remove? N y it is so ez to scratch ley ;(

If the scratch is on a polished surface, you can use Cape Cod Cloth to remove.

Used that quite frequently for my wife's Pam 219.

But please not on a brushed surface! :)

The seamaster banana and gold accutron are standouts for me. Didn't think I'd see either of these in this thread!

Reflective means polished steel, cape cod cloth is suitable. Never use it on a brushed steel. I got mine at DIY store marina square, plenty of stores if you check online. Spend around 5 mins with pressure and minor scratches will be gone in no time, just dont use it everyday you get a scratch. You will feel less pain once you get used to it, its part of owning a timepiece.
