Thanks for the video. Very interesting. Do OEM straps come with tubes?

[manufeli200]

[breitlingsource]

@manufeli200 Sorry I don't understand. I do not speak spanish. Perhaps you can translate with an online translater.

[manufeli200]

@breitlingsource I have a watch, but when I load it, the clock does not work, but if I put in another pocision this sometimes does not know if it's serious but not working properly.

Thanks for your help, any council.

thank you...

[breitlingsource]

@manufeli200 Sorry I'm not really following what you are asking. Have you tried taking it to your loacl watchmaker? I would start there.

Has anyone tried Hirsch or ABP Paris? Straps from these two producers are awesome, but not cheap. The original strap on my Oris Miles Complication was a heap of dodo for such an expensive time piece and I wouldn't dream of replacing it with an original. It certainly deserves a better one. I'm about to order from ABP at a cost of 170 euro plus.

I 'm many of these same made straps for my Panarai watches and the best straps I have is made by Shane Delaurian straps, they made incredible.

[imnotfatimfluffy617]

the OEM straps are thin cause it needs to be flexible cause of the deployment clasp on the watch. If you're going to change straps, get an ORIGINAL panerai strap. that's the way to go. if you use one of those aftermarket straps, i believe the value of the watch goes down. a panerai is a fabulous timepiece and worthy of only original panerai straps.

@imnotfatimfluffy617 How can the value go down just because of a strap? He can just put the ugly stock strap back on if he wants to sell the thing. Aftermarket straps are a painless way to customize the look of your watch because it does not actually change/modify the watch. Some of us watch wearers want a bit of individuality with our pieces and custom straps are the easiest and most painless way to achieve that.

Very nice review. You should have a look at the straps we make at Bas and Lokes Straps. We make all custom and entirely handmade exquisite straps for Panerai watches and others. May be worth your while to have a look.

Hi there, this little clip was just great! I was looking at the heroic straps and wasnt sure as to the quality. I feel quite confident now that its worth trying these straps on my Panerai. Thank you :)

[marcopolo2001]

Wow. Didn't know Heroics were so affordable. That Greg Stevens is phenomenal. Sandave as well. I should not be watching this video, but thanks for the eye candy. APB is one of my personal favs....

[DallasfuckingTT]

I just saw the GSD son your watch after I posted that comment. Mine is almost the same. You can see it on my flickr, just search dieselgeek.

[DallasfuckingTT]

I use GSD straps on my Anonimo. They run about $165 so it's not to bad. I think Anonimo straps are over $200.

[mircokaka]

what does oem mean?

[DallasfuckingTT]

original equipment manufacturer. An OEM panerai strap, would come from Panerai, w/ the Panerai name on it.

[Simplicityuscom]

do you have a stn steel watch bands?

[rtomson]

HD PLEASE! I love your videos, so don't take this as an insult -- I want to see your work in higher quality video because it's so good!

[hackerandcrackersinc]

love that GMT

[Bugstomper2]

Yeah, I think so too. Most look tacky. But there's one thing though. Because they're leather, maybe as you wear them in, they'll 'age' to a better look.

[RLLDZ]

Great Review!

[tahoe350]

Honestly, I have seen all of your videos many times and love all of them.. but pretty much all of those 'aftermarket' straps look like something made by someone doing those as a hobby. The OEM strap is vastly better looking quality wise/ and looks wise.

[customtacticals]

The aftermarket straps in the video are of the vintage style, many using vintage ammo leather as well, to make a strap. It is a particular look that departs from the standard OEM.

There are plenty of straps that imitate the OEM straps for $15 on ebay, but there's no point buying an inferior straps that imitates the original.

To each his own. Many love the vintage style.. and many don't. Its up to you. :)

[foxrider979]

i frequent the site and reviews regularly. thank you and keep up the good work!

[eltejano]

nice vid - and I like the 114 from the start

[xxxKLLxxx]

Now its paneraisource? Do they pay you to do this or something?

[AwesomeAlvin]

i have a small wrist and majority of those straps i need to set it to the smallest setting and its still loose and feels funny with the extra bit sticking out. is there anyone who makes custom straps cut to a specific length?

[tahoe350]

Go to a leather working site...onethat deals with shoe makers. You can find hole punches in all sorts of sizes and shapes to match the strap hole. Basicly its a metal punch and you hammer it through the strap with a hammer and you get a perfect hole.

[darkstar1one]

What after-market crocodile/alligator strap maker would you recommend for a (white dial) Super Avenger? I'd like to swap the bracelet for a strap but I'd rather not pay the premium for the rather expensive Breitling ones!
