My Panerai will be the first watch where I would switch out the strap. After seeing so many photos with different style straps, I have to admit I want to have a varied collection for different looks. I'll have 2 or 3 genuine Panerai straps, but looking to supplement them with the many after market straps I see online and on Ebay. I also don't want to pay regular prices for a deployment clasp, so looking to get an after market version of that as well. What do you guys think about after market straps and buckles?

My favorite custom straps are Simona Di Stefano straps. They are great looking and super comfortable. They are expensive but you get what you pay for. Lots of options out there but as for ones on EBay that wouldn't be where I'd look. Here is my 217 on a custom Simona Bruno Allegrini strap...Cheers,

You are embarking on a journey here. There isn't a "best" strap for the world. Only a best strap for you.

I love
kev's for toughness/vintage/distress
ABP for high dollar gators
I also like some codman's I have

Only you can find out

Great advice!

Also, the makers already mentioned in this thread are top-notch. I'd also add Micah (vintagerstraps), John (dangerous9) and Ted Su.
