Nice watch....

Can I ask where to get the stripe for IWC 3717?

[breitling77]

Wah, impressive! It looks very similar to IWC BP. I love the rose-gold plated movements and blue screws! And the little red "60" seconds. A beautiful and exotic alligator strap would be icing on the cake! Thanks for sharing.
