Brown Saddle strap by Simona di Stefano, on a Panerai PAM360
The Saddle strap is made of the highest quality and durable leather. The leather is 4.5mm thick but it is very soft and pliable. The beveled edges - clearly visible in the below photo - give these straps a very unique and stylish look.

This saddle strap strap came with a bent PVD buckle - excellent for the 360
The stitches near the lugs are another very nice design detail. The combination of the beveled edges and the softness of the leather makes these straps the most comfortable I've ever tried on my wrist.

Simona makes the Saddle strap in a number of different varieties, a black version in 26mm is shown in the above photo on a Panerai PAM127. Note how these straps have no stitches along the edges which gives these straps a very distinct and classy look. You can order these straps with straight or bent buckles in stainless steel or with a PVD finish (showing in the first photo).

Simona also sent two new straps that are made from Nile crocodile leather. These straps have the same unique beveled edges as the Saddle straps and the same stitchless design.

Finally, here's a photo of my current favorite strap for the PAM243. Thinking about it, I've never even considered a stitchless strap before - and now that I've seen these in person and tried on a few combos, I'm just loving it. I guess it's true that pictures don't always do things justice. The black saddle strap really is the perfect strap for the PAM243.
