I do well I think but geez this is an expensive habit.

New Di Stefano absinthe strap
Here is my Panerai 0389 sporting one of my new straps. If you are in the market for a new strap, check out Di Stefano. Fantastic quality and superb service from Firenze, Italy.

Wow! This is a new high for the 3186.
