IWC Watch Box

Hi everyone,

I purchased an IWC Portofino about 5-6 years ago and just recently, I took the watch box out of my cupboard and found it to be in pretty bad state due to the case being made of rubber.

The exterior is very sticky with lots of dust on it that is not coming off.

Does anyone have any experience restoring the box? Or does anyone know if IWC boutiques sell box replacements?
