Big pilot on Panerai style strap?

Ive got several old straps around from my pam days. I like fooling around with straps so last night dug out a 26mm strap I used with a 372 from Micah and put it in my BP. The leather is soft and was able to squeeze in between the lugs easily. Its definitely softer and more comfortable than the IWC deployant and does a good job helping the watch head not shift/flop. It looks kinda overwhelming for the watch though. Prolly switch it back to factory strap. What you all think?

Yea too overwhelming! IMO the IWC straps are unbeatable.

It looks very squeezed in at the lugs.

Yep lol 26mm squeezed down to 22mm. Its already back on the factory strap. But i do think could be cool with vintage ammo type strap from micah, GSD, strap smith etc if sized correctly. To be continued
