Anyone use a bracelet??
Hey guys, I have a pam499 and 5 diff straps, I saw a pam352 today, black dial with steel bracelet and realized I hardly ever see a bracelet panerai out in the wild.
Was trying to see if a steel bracelet would fit on my 499, anyone try this? 352 is 44m as well so I don't see why not but maybe I'm missing something? |

As I live in a tropical country, I always use steel bracelet.

Can’t really explain why, but the 40mm Luminors always look better to me on a bracelet.

I agree, the look good on bracelet, but has anyone tried buying a bracelet to put on a strap model? I have 499, seeing if a bracelet on another 44m model would work.

You could probably buy a third party bracelet on Ebay that might fit. I have the Pam1312 and I read that the Pam723 would fit my 1312 because they have the same size case. But it would cost a lot of money for just the bracelet. I should have just bought the 723 and then you could change it up with straps. |

Historically, Panerai were worn on straps which is why they are the most popular option. I do think that the bracelets look good on the smaller models, but on anything 44mm+ they just seem bulky. I have yet to see a Panerai bracelet in the flesh, but I think since so many individuals who collect Panerai also collect Rolex, Omega, etc that they already have bracelet options in their collection.
