Icon14 New strap for summer on my new IWC Mark XVII....

First I want to say that the OEM leather is fantastic and the beefed up buckle is a nice improvement, but, I needed a summer strap.

I finally got my Kevlar look strap in the mail today. I had one on my old 3717 and I loved it, so I knew I had to get another. These straps have the IWC OEM Kevlar look that comes on the Top Gun model without the price tag. It has a rubber like outside and the inside is a nice water resistant leather. This strap will be perfect for the hot AZ summer. I really like being able to wash my washes, including the strap, and always find that I prefer to wear a water proof strap for that reason.

I just got out of the pool and gave it a quick bath, now it smells like peaches from my wife's Bath and Body soap, much better than sweat like some of my old leathers.

For those that asked for picks when TWB strap arrived, here ya go. This strap is 115X75 just like the OEM leather and fits my 7 1/4" wrist perfectly.
