Strap for Panerai Submersible PAM00615

The lug width of the Panerai Submersible PAM00615 measures exactly 26 millimeters, measured between the two lugs that connect the strap to the case. This dimension is proportional to the 47 millimeter case diameter, following Panerai standards for Submersible models. You can verify the measurement using a digital caliper positioned perpendicularly to the lugs.

For the PAM00615 we recommend straps in Niloticus alligator with pronounced grain, dark English calf, FKM (Viton) rubber for frequent diving, or black NATO fabric. Alligator pairs naturally with the patina of brushed titanium, while rubber offers the best resistance to salt water. Avoid perforated straps or warm colors, which would conflict with the technical nature of the instrument.

To change the strap, you need a spring bar removal tool. Insert the tip of the tool into the small slot of the spring bar from the bottom side, gently press to compress the internal spring, then remove the old strap. Align the holes of the new strap with the lugs and insert them until you feel the locking click. Verify that both sides are securely fastened before wearing the watch.

All straps with a 26 millimeter lug width are compatible with the PAM00615. Standard Panerai spring bars use the universal size, so you can choose from specialized artisans, recognized aftermarket brands, or vintage straps as long as the width is respected. At Milano Straps you will find a curated selection of 26mm straps made in premium leathers and technical rubbers, with customization options available.

A quality leather strap, used occasionally and subjected to occasional diving, lasts on average 18-24 months before requiring replacement. Regular exposure to salt water reduces durability: always rinse the strap in fresh water after diving and let it dry completely. If you practice frequent diving, an FKM rubber strap offers superior durability, up to 5 years, without deterioration. Casati Milano provides 18 months warranty on all custom-made straps.
