WOTANCRAFT ATELIER
DISCOVER A UNIQUE STRAP CRAFT OFTRADITION AND INNOVATION
Hello Panerisiti!
My name is James, a leather craftsman from Taiwan.
I've been making leather goods for a long time
Years ago, a friend showed me an old military watch- The Panerai 6152-1
and ask me if I can make a really vintage strap for him.
I was totally stunned by the beauty and the texture of the watch.
The real tobacco dial , heavily distressed domed acrylic glass , and most of all, the battle worn strap.
Thus, I was deeply in love with Panerai , and started my panerai collection.
Since then, to make my friends' and my PAMs more personalize, I started to build vintage leather straps.
Today , I'm.trying to convey my passion for perfection and enthusiasm for quality to those watch fans who love Panerai.
My products include AMMO straps, vintage straps, rare leather straps, buckles, and cases.
All produced with high level of quality control standards and unique skills of craftsmanship.
The photo shots, Web sites, and of course, the straps are all made by myself.
From deepest part of my heart, I truly do hope that my strap will make your PAM really different.
I started with the love of Panerai, and will continue to keep the most important thing in my mind.
Making the best products for those who love Panerai as much as I am!
Thank you and hope you enjoy it.

***Dearest Paneristi***
Many kind suggestions about the 1950 strap were sent to me. Deeply appreciated.
For 18 months, I have been making #74 Straps in Taiwan since I saw the original strap on the Panerai Watch Introduction.
Yet, since there is a well-known strap artist who is producing 74 straps, too.
To show my respect to the forum and the other producers,
I will stop providing 74 straps.
***Thank you for your understanding.***
SXM-001 [ Egiziano ]
Egiziano is a Panerai Radiomir made for the Egyptian Navy in the mid-1950's.
During that period, Italian Navy is the elite in Mediterranean region.
So they permitted to train other Mediterranean Navy officers and provided the officers with Panerai Gears.
After the training session is over, some of the officers brought the Panerai gears back to Egypt.
The quality amazed Egyptian military authority so they requested Officine Pnerai to develop a stronger and indestructible diving watch. Thus, the " Egiziano " was born!
The Egiziano is very rare. Only 50 pieces were made.
This Egiziano strap is almost an exact reproduction of the original one no matter the texture or the color.
The distressed look is carefully done by experienced craftsman.
If you are looking for a nice vintage style strap, you must try this " Egiziano "!

SXM-020 [ Kampf Schwimmer 1945 ]
Trained by Decima Flottiglia MAS,
the German Navy Kampf Schwimmer (Combat Swimmer) was a fierce special force in the WWII.
They had executed several successful missions like sinking Destroyers and exploding Antwerp canal locks by Human Torpedoes.
Because of the close relationship with Italian Navy, Kampf Schwimmer also used Panerai gears, including diving watches.
Kampf Schwimmer 1945 strap is designed exactly based on the original Panerai 3646 watch strap.
This kind of leather is called Italy buffalo leather. It is very supple but soft.
The color of the strap is a perfect combination of dark and light brown.

SXM-023 [ Compass assault type A ]
In the 1930s, Officine Panerai was a long term supplier for various diving instruments of Italian Naval Force.
During the WWII, the newly developed watches and other gears were standard-issued to Italian Naval Elite
like frogmen, SLC torpedo riders, and commandos.
The diving compasses were usually installed with military nylon straps.
Because this kind of fabric is tough, sea-water endurable and anti-corrosive,
it is a rightful choice to be the strap of a diving compass.
The Compass Assault Type A strap uses same military nylon as the original one.
With heavily distressed 316L stainless steel buckle and C ring, this Compass Assault Type A looks exactly like original vintage diving strap.
If I may rephrase my words, This Is The Original Vintage Diving Strap!

Seen your straps before.....photos are far more better than real products. Btw,your ammo straps seems not produce by real ammo pouches.Taiwan really has so many ammo pouches!!
Thanks for all your advices.
As to the 74 strap issue, I`ve made a statement in my ad. Kindly refer.
Also, as your saying, Taiwan doen`t have any swiss ammo indeed. So I purchased them directly from Swiss and Deutsche on eBay and from my providers there.
Thank you and have a good day.
This gentlement from Taiwan is not in the wrong, right he is a copy cat, but he think that some strapmakers are overprice their products and opportunist steps in, simple economics, anyway it is a free world, open trade and competitive market ..... I support competitions. my 2 cents
I have ordered a strap , time will tell. Hope this seller is legit because his stuff is beautiful ! As far as in person, I will be sure to give feeback, bad or good.
