Evening! I have found myself owning 3701 Porsche Design but it's in very bad
shape: it doesn't have the wristband and the case it's in very poor condition.
I want to restore it but I live in Bogota, Colombia and it's not easy to find
the replacing parts or the place to achieve the process of restoration. I'd
really appreciate any advice.
Best regards.
Juan Pablo.

Your PD has an aluminium case which is quite prone to wear and tear. To make a
long story short, the only place to have it well and truly properly restored
is at the IWC in Schaffhausen, but adding the right bracelet and restoring it
may well cost you more than buying a similar one in very good condition
online. IWC website will be able to show you if there is a reputable,
authorised dealership in your country. They can send the watch for a repair
estimate, which will cost about $ 150 and which will be need to be paid in any
case, say you decide not to go ahead with the repair. Hope this will help.
