    Would you wear this watch:

    with the bracelet of this one?

    I love IWC bracelets and am seriously thinking about it as an option, but I'm not sure if it really fits color and style. What do you guys think?
    Anyone ever tried that combo? I've never seen pictures of it.

    Tilo - yes. It fits. I thought that watch came on that bracelet.... It belongs on it.

    Hi Tilo

    I would say it is possible to change. I would stick to brown strap though.

    Cheers Chris

    PS. Why don't you change the YC strap to the Ocean Racer strap first...;-)?

    Tilo, it's a great match which is rather logical since it's an Ingy bracelet! The brushed metal is very neutral and a perfect match with the finishing of your SP.
    So I think it will look fantastic on your watch (and make the watch significantly heavier but also well balanced).

    It won't come cheap I guess... but nothing beats IWC bracelets as you already know.

    Best,

    Bob

    Tilo, I don't think you can go wrong with the bracelet/SP combination. The bracelet looks like it was made for it.

    Tilo - heck yeah, that will work. It will make it even sportier and it will make for a great way to vary the utility/use/look/feel of a very cool watch.
    So go out and get it:-)

    Jarrod, on this website go
    Collection -> Page of the corresponding watch -> Enlarge -> Download Hi-Res image.
    Then on the page with the picture you just copy the picture URL and paste it here.
    The third one is mine from 2 nights ago ;)
    Looking forward to see you on Friday, how is Stuttgart, mate?

    It would look great, Tilo, there is enough brushed finishing on the case to make it work. I would do it for sure!

    I would go for the bracelet, it would look great! Does it have a micro adjustment feature? I think I remember the titanium Lewis Hamilton had such a feature.

    Kind regards,
    Paul

    I prefer it on the bracelet. Here's what it will look like:

    WOW, great, that's what I wanted to see, fantastic!
    I don't have the correct tools to manipulate pictures.
    Thank you so much.

    Could Fred Astaire dance?
    Is the Pope Catholic?

    Tilo, it's unanimous amongst all of us here - go ahead and get that bracelet! You won't regret it.
