    Buying a new
    strap for your watch is most of the time not such an exciting
    event. Last summer, coming back from our holidays in Italy, we stopped at the
    Zurich boutique. What a treat for the IWC collector/customer.

    The boutique manager was so kind to give us a tour of the boutique, just
    wow...

    When I saw the Mercedes SL inside and made a remark on the nice leather
    upholstery, he came back to me with a special metal box, with a strap inside,
    matching the red leather of the Mercedes seats.

    I bought it instantly, what a nice and special strap. But at that moment, I
    hadn't a clue on what watch I would put it. Until yesterday, found the right
    combination I think, what do you think ?

    Tonny,

    that combo looks very special at first sight. The dial/case color is matching
    the outside colors of that awesome Gullwing Mercedes. There are even very
    small touches of red on the dial. Looks pretty cool in my opinion and is
    something that's very unique!

    Wow, I was able to look at a band like that in the Zurich boutique. That is
    something very special! The leather, its origin and the wonderful workmanship!
    Have fun with the great strap!

    Cheers,

    Sascha
