The Closest thing to FACTORY DIRECT.....TC Straps......

What are you buying today when you order a strap?

Yes, there are a few Individual strap makers that put out a few straps a day/week and produce some nice straps.

But what about straps for all size wrists and all size watches? Let's look at the facts:

  • How many people can say... Hand Made in Italy?
  • Our Straps are made by the ORIGINAL OEM Strap Maker for Panerai from 1938 to 1997
  • We make the starps we sell and do not act as a "Middle Man/Woman." Factory direct means you can only buy them new from Time Connection or in the UK from Watch Obsession.
  • No need to buy from strap sellers who do not own factories and just place orders once a month
Also, think about it. Buying straps from Europe with the Euro at $1.38, a $200 Euro strap costs you $278 plus shipping, in Euros' and the straps have no Pedigree. The sellers are paying for the Straps in Euros' and drive their costs up.

At Time Connection, we are the factory and our prices have remained the same regardless of where the Euro has climbed to. Why have we held the line?

  1. We produce so many straps for retail and for Manufacturers
  2. I guess it help to have an interest in a factory
  3. Because we can!
The Choice is yours. Straps that have a true background as they are made by Mario Paci and Fabrizio Ciampi. Mr. Paci was Chief Engineer of Panerai from 1983 to 1997. Fabrizio Ciampi has been in the strap business since he was knee hight to his uncle Mr. Brelli.

We are straps. That is all we do. Why settle for the same old thing or overpriced goods due to Dollar fluctuations. Why not buy straps for Panerai that are Contemporary Legends.
