here's a detail shot of the dragon buckle on my wrist, I also got the samurai and pirate buckle. Everything, straps, buckles, pewter pig keychain/bottle opener, and felt strap case is by Wotancraft based out of Taipei, Taiwan.

the keychain/bottle opener and felt strap case come free with the purchase of a strap. The straps are handmade using double saddle stitch contruction like hermes birkin bags.

The buckles are made of 925 sterling silver and they have beautiful artwork and are a substantial piece of metal as you can see from the photos. for those of you lucky ones who have a PAM382, they also have bronze buckles which are cheaper than the sterling silver ones.

if you pick up the strap at the wotancraft showroom in taipei, they will punch the hole to fit in your wrist and a perfect fit is a great feeling.

I promised the guys at the shop id rave about them on an english watch forum.
