Hello all,

I have been looking at getting a bracelet for my Panerais, 24MM.

Just wondering if anyone makes an aftermarket PAM bracelet, or am I best to stick with the OEM?

If someone could let me know the MSRP and if discounts are available?

There are repro bracelets on eBay from time to time but i have no knowledge of the quality. OE bracelets are expensive, i think the cheapest permutaion of all steel is £1500 Steel and Ti mixed, hit £1700+ These are prices for the 'C' bracelet. The newer straight link style is cheaper but nowhere near as nice imo. I also doubt very much you'd get a discount in the UK, but that could be different where you are. There's one for sale now over on 'dot com' if you want the new style, $1500 i think.

Be aware that if you buy an oem bracelet without special third party made adaptors, a bracelet can't be fitted to a non bracelet model if it's more than a couple of years old. I don't know when the manufacturing changes were but i'd wager someone will and post accordingly.

Thanks for the info Baz!


That is quite steep, I dont want to spend more than 600-800 at the very most on a bracelet. I am sure there must be some sort of after market solution. Hmmmm

I've purchased an Aftermarket bracelet, and the quality, while good, is no where near as good as OEM ones or OEM anything.. I found that it hurt my wrist to wear it and wasn't finished all that great. And it was not cheap either.

aftermarket PAM bracelets are no way close to OEM quality, however aftermarket PAM straps can be just as good as OEM quality or better

Panerai's OEM straps are actually not very good quality. Their leather straps fade quickly, and their alligator scuffs easily.
