Newbie Pam 005 Owner

Hey Guys - quick question regarding a Pam 005 i picked up.

I was wondering if you could add a deployment buckle to oem strap that comes with the PAM 005?

Anyone have a good recommendation a new black strap similar to oem? All the after markets I see out there are much thicker and to big for my wrist.

Thanks!

The straps that use the deployant are thinner and I don't think the deployant will work on the standard strap, but you may be able to find an aftermarket buckle that would work.

that's right

the straps for the deplyant has a different opening at the buckle end of the short strap.

so you will have to get new strap along with the deployamt

there are some strapmakers that make thin dress crocs but for the price differential, you mind as well buy the OEM. Panerai does dess crocs very well...
enjoy the Fiver...its a great piece..and have fun strap shopping...
