Why choose a stainless steel bracelet

316L stainless steel resists corrosion from sweat and water, so the bracelet copes with daily wear better than leather. A silver steel bracelet also suits the plain, legible dials of IWC pilot’s watches and gives them a more robust, tool-watch character. If you prefer a lighter, more open look, the Milanese mesh bracelet for IWC is the alternative in the same range.

How to fit it

1. Lay the watch face down on a soft cloth so the case and crystal are protected.
2. Use a spring bar tool to compress the spring bar at each lug and lift the old strap or bracelet away.
3. Place a spring bar in the end of the new bracelet, set one tip into the lug hole, compress the other tip and let it click into place.
4. Tug gently on each side to check it is locked in. Never open the case back: the bracelet attaches only at the lugs.
