You will NOT stop at 3 or 4... or 5. Ouch, that croc is nearly 350 bucks! Good luck, Chip! Yeah that's too rich for me at the moment and I think I'll stick to drooling for now. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

</div> I like the OEM one and the other croc than this one. It's not bad, but the OEM strap looks right at home on that PAM.

I agree Baco NoirThis one is a shade I'm not too fond off for some reason, perhaps a bit too brown. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

I prefer a taper also. When you think as well of the enormous buckle on those it would make me go for a taper even more!

did some strap trading today and ended up with a new OEM distressed calf in 26-22mm. It looks stiff but it's about the softest strap I have ever seen.

I'm on my third strap today.
Maybe this strap thing is addictive after all.

I hate to be an 'enabler' but I reckon this gorgeous watch would look ace on a kind of olive/khaki fabric strap, like cotton canvass. Kind of an army vibe, the colour would look so warm with the dial and stunning gilt hands. Just a thought - maybe something like this? :
