My First IWC !!!

Hi Everyone,

On a recent trip to South Korea, I walked into the duty free shop and fell in love with the IWC, I was in Korea for a week, so I had lots of time to walk around Seoul and look at all the watches they had to offer.. no matter how hard i looked at different brands of watches.. i still came back to the IWC counter.

So i ended up purchasing a "Pilots watch Chronograph" with a leather strap,

I was also thinking about purchasing a TOP GUN strap for it as it came with a leather one.. anyone know wear i could purchase one for a good price.

Thanking you in advance.

Mike

Congrats to your new purchase. :)

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your purchase! Wear it in good health and don't forget to post some pictures.

Greetings Mike,

Welcome to the Forum. First, allow me to say congratulations on acquiring the Pilot Chrono ( which model, 3717,3777 ? ). I can tell you from personal experience that the "Top Gun" soft strap paired with the Pilot Chrono makes for one beautiful watch. I have the 3717 with that strap. It's a favorite.

Rules of the Forum restrict the discussion on pricing or references to specific Retailers/Distributers or other sales channels including 4 sale/wanted announcements. With that said, any Authorized Dealer (AD) or IWC Boutique will be happy to assist you in ordering the strap you seek and in the length that fits you best (XS , Standard, XL ).

Once you receive your new strap, please share with us a pic of how it looks. If you don't, you owe us all a drink. LOL. Seriously, enjoy your new Pilot and again, welcome to the Forum.

Regards,

Andy

Congratulations! Excellent way to start a collection.

Congrats Mike. That is a great way to start your IWC collection.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys

I look forward to chatting more with you guys and gain some great knowledge from the forum.

I will post pics once i get the watch, as I got it from Duty free shop. I need to pick it up from the airport.

Welcome to the IWC forum - Congrats to your new Pilot!

I recently bought my first contemporary IWC too, also from the Pilot family -the Spitfire ref 387804.

Wear it in good health!

franco, here's instructions from bill:

Here is quick tutorial from one of the veterans in our forum,
(thank you Bill)

For the Portuguese Yacht Club Volvo edition, try using the Forum's Search field.
I'm sure you will find lot of stuff here. ;-)

i just looked at the receipt, my model is the 377701A

Mike...the 3777 will look teriffic with the Top Gun strap. If you want to consider additional strap options, a ref. 21700 St. Exupery Brown strap would also add to the beauty of the 3777.

Enjoy that first IWC, just make sure you get a watch box that will hold the many more coming your way.

Best,

Andy

Congratulations!! And waiting for photos ;)
