Dealer gave me another OEM strap - shiny black gator!

Another OEM strap from my AD... no charge again!

It's a shiny black gator w/ black stitching. Definitely changes the character of the watch. It's a lot shinier in person.

Here are some pics:

great score. You are one lucky man. It retails for £230. I got one with White stitching. Love the look of it.

Nice pickup - black seems to work well with the 312




Cheers

Thanks fellas!!

Got a great AD. Not the lowest prices as some have posted here for Panerais or Rolexes, but good service and double the warranty. Straps, free polishes, watch winders, magazines/books. They promised me free 1st servicing on the watches at the end of 4 years. Even little things like free shipping or my salesman shipping a watch to his friend and picking it up from out of state to save me tax.

I was even offered a free Tag Heuer box when I was selling my Tag Monaco... it's great!

These guys take care of me. It all started with them having to revise my fiance's engagement ring 3 times on 3 different platinum settings. After they bent over backwards to take care of her ring, I promised them that I'd get watches from them from then on.

Nothing! LOL!!!

He promised me another strap after the cashmere so here it is!

I do have 2 more straps in the "bank".... I'm going to cash in once I know which I want. I think a brown croc would be nice.
