a few weeks ago a great strapmaker died...Kevin Regers ADEEOS.

Kevin was a nice guy. We have written times. It is a pity and it makes me sad. I will miss him!

I am surprised. He was not that old.

Is he the same guy who went to Thailand after some drama about 1:1 3646 case sets??? Nevertheless, he was a strap trailblazer. Rest in peace.

His straps are hard to come by on the boards.

That's too bad.

Couple of things about Addeos:
His credited for being the first person to use an ammo pouch to make straps. Last year, Phillips auctioned a vintage Panerai the same night they auctioned Paul Newman's watch; that Panerai had an Adeeos strap.

I didn't know him but for sure he was a piece of Panerai history himself. RIP and prayers to the family
