I recently had the pleasure of visiting IWC's headquarters in Schaffhausen (with a lucky reader) for a tour of the 146-year-old brand's manufacture and museum. The attention to detail and efficient workflow within the manufacture was mesmerizing, in addition to the dizzying array of high-tech machinery used to produce the modern watches.

A new band is needed
The original band on my (almost three year old BM) tore at one of the pin holes half way across the strap. Fortunately I had saved the strap from my Seiko diver¡¯s quartz from long ago. I want to replace it with the original stainless steel bracelet. I found it at ¡®watchbands¡¯. It¡¯s the- Seiko 20mm-Stainless Steel-49X8JG and sells for $50.00I saw below the post about ¨COM band and the Watchadoo bracelet looks better than the OEM band. Where do you suggest I purchase it?PS: I just want to apologize to the members for being away for so long. I¡¯m still a watch enthusiast and this Christmas I¡¯m looking forward to adding to my collection. Seiko Black Monster.Vostok ArktikaBernhardt Sea Shark
