that is awesome!
I have played with the idea before as well but kudos for executing the deal, your strap and pam look fantastic!
Do you have pics of the underside, out of curiosity? Do tell about the leather too if you don't mind and congrats to you!
Made my own strap, made me fall in love with PAM again
I hardly ever wore the 590 that I acquired almost 7 years ago because I had it on the OEM assolutamente strap which was thick and also somehow slighty itchy for me. Skip to March this year, I decided to learn how to make watch straps after being told that...

Wonderful!
What a great initiative! That's awesome and judging from the strap...you have quite the competence in making straps. Looks wonderful!
Thank you
Frustrations along the way for sure but leather work/hobby is relatively easy to improve quickly because the trial and error process has low cost of error.
Congratulations!!! You’re a pro!!!
Can I order one for my 111, please? It is remarkable how the right strap does the difference when you have lost interest in your watch. Congrats again! Best. René
I have a couple of friends....
