Oem I've found over last 20 yrs to be the best and right amount of padding but are super expensive , outwith rubber b the oem rubber is still the best ,
Had a rubber b on my titanium luminor and wore it non stop for 8 months
Some after market stuff are cheap for a reason they are pretty s""te
A standard leather Panerai straps does about 2 years daily whereas I have never thrown a Toshi, BigB, or Jabba strap away ever.
Can I just add to my comments by saying that they apply mainly to Panerai leather straps the rubber straps that panerai make are really well made

Perfect timing on the strap talk.
I'm away for a few weeks and debating what watch to take. It will be a warm beach holiday but i find my 005 uncomfy on the Panerai rubber. Love it on a leather strap but that wounldn't think me for taking into the sea.
Any other recommendations - that don't cost the same as just buying an Apple watch to use on holiday?
Waterproof leather strap? They do exist. I have a Dirk Incursore 5218 strap that's seawaterproof to 7000ft for 50 hours. As it happens I'm wearing it today (on a Gruppo Gamma, not Panerai). You'll struggle to fine one of these now but there must be other waterproof leather straps?
Have a look at rubber b swimskin

Not tried myself and not cheap but does look good.
I used to own the base 560 which Wandril now does & I had 2 waterproof leather straps. One OEM from Panerai used to be under the description calf cashmere gold strap. My favourite OEM strap which I used many times swimming. It did age over a period of time though.
The other was Kodiak strap bought from the US. Much stiffer than OEM but great for water use & didn’t age.
Believe Di Stefano (spelling unsure) used to make a few as well.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a grey crocodile strap with contrasting stitching for my PAM 510?
100% true
Maybe you didn't have good and right one
For me any non-OEM i have is better that OEM one...but i have good makers in my country ;)

New strap on the 1335, i liked the navy suede but brown always looks better on a Panerai to me

I've gone a bit mental on corriga straps since Xmas. They are already on sale, and with stock50 code you are getting 50% off the sale price, just bought my 5th strap this year, all my pams and my BBB are rocking corriga

Turning my attention to a summer strap for my Radiomir,has any one tried an Erikas on this model,not sure about the wire lugs holding this style of strap.
You need 50% off as there expensive ,you can get better straps from cordes,kostas,toshi,sword and a load more,the last Corrigia I had was no where near the right colour,I’m not the only one.

Not piling on Rob just a fair comment on your experience. The right strap made right with the right experience of buying is important and thats why I only use 2 people.
Toshi and Jabba
Kostas. Want to try cordes but am weaning myself off my strap habit.
Well trying to anyway

Bought this 425 exactly 10 years ago today. Not been serviced yet, keeps great time with a recently measured 79 hours of power reserve and still on the original leather strap. I really enjoy wearing it, it’s had plenty of wrist time and I doubt I’d ever sell.
Slightly OT but at the cinema this week with my 5yr old & watching the trailers as you do. New animated Garfield movie (Garfield voiced by Chris Pratt - Panerai wearer) & it looked like Garfield owner (John) is wearing one https://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi58...f_=ext_shr_sms

When it comes to panerai,white is refreshingly different.
My 114 gets plenty of wrist time.
