The Panerai Source Forums

Hi All,

I am new here, I am looking for your opinion on which are the suppliers of what you believe to be the best aftermarket buckles. I want to fit a 22/22 aftermaket strap to an Omega Planet Ocean Big Size and would go for a Manifatture Firenze (I represent for the Italians!! ) Vacchetta one, but they come without buckles.
I am ideally looking for a thumb buckle but I am open to all options.
Thank you!

If you want a thumbnail style buckle, not a lot of people make high quality aftermarket ones.. it seems like the focus on aftermarket seems to be towards big Pre-V style buckles and PIG buckles. I would suggest you just buy a typical panerai-style thumbnail buckle off ebay or something similar. The quality should be sufficient. If i were you though I would look for a 22mm Omega buckle, if such a beast exists.
