Baseball season is here again ( Atleast in the civilized world) and what better way to mark it then putting a watch on a new baseball strap.
Probably marmite given the color but is exquisitely made.

Is the strap made from a rounders ball?
Well in all fairness, if there's ever a watch brand that should be seen in conjunction with crazy straps and bright coloured clothes, it's Panerai. Had a few and loved every one of them.Quote:

Not seen anything like that before, I would definitely remember if I had. It certainly appears to be nicely made and I trust that you will enjoy wearing it.
Love the watch; the strap, not so much.
YOU like it though - enjoy! :eagerness:
Brave choice! Enjoy it Rajen

As a fan of unique and interesting straps, I have to say that looks spot on with your Panerai. Good choice!
Beaten to it yet again.Quote:

Assuming it is a serious question and you are not taking piss- no,it is not.Quote:

Yes, baseball players wear tights whereas Rounders players opt for skirts.Quote:

Looks like sh*t. But you already knew that.
When I say sh*t I actually mean the hernia scar of an albino bull after an unfortunate encounter with a blind vet.
+1 true utter shiteQuote:

Well, all the "rounders" observations have already been made, so lve nothing really to add. Do l like the strap? Well, what do you reckon...?
I prefer the baseball straps that are made from old baseball mitts. However your one does have more pizzazz!

To be honest, I'm amazed you're able to cut a strap along the lines of a baseball seam. It would appear impossible (but my non-Euclidean maths is poor these days).

Never seen anything like it! I guess it works if you're an avid baseball fan.

:thumbsup: watch
:grief:strap
But, I admire your courage!
Daddel.
It's definately......different I'll give you that! So longs you're happy with it :-)
Thanks.
I appreciate all the feedback, positive and negative ( except for one comment ).
It certainly is different and not for everyone and all occasions.
Definitely has something of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre about it.
I only clicked on this thread because I assumed the title was a joke. I'm still not certain.
I like the strap. Is it comfortable though?
Digging through my watch box today for something else and I found this I forgot I had that reminded me of this thread. This is made from an NFL ball so something to wear between late September and February :-)

Certainly a brave choice thats for sure.
No, no, no, no, no - but you already know that anyway.
Quite "special".
Actually, IRL this has been an astounding success.
As the strap choice illustrates, I wear what I wear for myself and not what someone thinks.
But, have been pleasantly surprised by the number of compliments I received in one day of wear.
Now,I can't discount the possibility that they were just being nice:-).
Honestly, though it wears very well and is fun to wear.
Thinking of getting another one from the same maker. More traditional.
That's very cool! Where did you get it?
Man, that's hideous and no way to treat a Panerai. I think you need a Jacob & Co or LV watch. ;)
LOL.Quote:
