I finally did it! My first Panerai

I finally have my first Panerai coming. I have a 328 on the way from Briboxer ( who was great to deal with). Will post pics when it arrives. Decided on the bracelet because I wanted something to wear everyday. I have a few questions though. I can still easily switch it to a strap, right? Also, how do I know what size strap to order.

Congrats. Yes, it's easily converted to strap. 24/22 is the standard strap size. You'll need a buckle.

Yep, however, 24/24 is the cooler strap size ...

But both will work? Any other sizes that will work with it?

Just wait until you have a few nice straps around the house for that bad boy, you won't want to wear anything else.

Look at the strap sellers link and start to imagine how your newest will look on all those wonderful 24mm straps.

24X24 is pretty much how you are going to find aftermarket straps, 24X22 is OEM size.
