Frequently Asked Questions

1. How Do I Take Care of Leather Straps?

Leather is biodegradable, and while it’s a sturdy material, it’s not waterproof. Genuine leather is porous, and water can damage it, which results in staining and discoloration. This, in turn, will lead to the strap’s damage over time. 

Simple maintenance for leather is gentle cleaning with a wet cloth. If the bands are exposed to water, you can brush off the excess moisture and use an absorbent cloth to speed up the drying process. Never use a hair dryer to dry any type of leather because the leather will deteriorate faster.

Another way you can protect natural leather bands is to apply a protectant like a beeswax cream to repel water and other elements, such as sun exposure. Gently work the cream into the straps so it can be absorbed easily.

2. How Do I Know It’s Time to Replace My Watch Straps?

When your Panerai watch strap looks worse for wear, it’s time for a replacement. If you feel like replacing straps for aesthetic reasons, then you also may.

If the leather or rubber band is ripping or the stainless steel band looks rusty or out of shape, consider getting new ones. Another way to tell is if the buckle is no longer working correctly when you fasten it tightly. Replacing the buckle is one thing, but you may as well get a new strap or band for your Panerai timepiece with a design you want to pair better with outfits.

Affixing a new replacement band to your Panerai watch is a surefire way to give it a new look. It’s an economical way to upgrade an accessory you love wearing without spending too much.

Take a look at our handy guides for step-by-step instructions on how to install straps, buckles, links, and pins to your watch by yourself.

3. How Do I Stop My Watch Bands from Smelling?

Panerai timepieces are great accessories because they’re stylish, which is why people use them every day. Watch bands that are made from natural materials such as leather are bound to smell. The porous leather traps sweat, dirt, and odors over time, and when it’s not meticulously cleaned, it will have grimy and stinky buildup overtime.

The first thing you want to do when dealing with stinky bands is to let it breathe. You can clean the strap to remove trapped dirt using a wet cloth. If you want to get rid of the odor, you need to thoroughly clean it by removing the strap from your watch.

Next is to use a soft cloth and dampen it with mild soap and gently tap on the straps to cleanse it. Pay more attention to stops with more dirt. With another cloth dampened with water, gently wipe the suds. Let the watch strap dry naturally. Use a leather oil or conditioner to condition, soften, and protect the band.
