    Hello,
    I am new to this forum as well as IWC watches in general. My father gave me this GST as he is in poor health and does not really wear it much anymore. I would like to wear it but the bracelet is a little tight so I am trying to find somewhere to purchase extra links for it. I think I have seen this band on other models. So hopefully they won't be too difficult to find. Any help or locations to get these would be appreciated.
    Thank you!
    Dean

    Dwight - it's a very nice watch. Is it 18k Yellow Gold? Tough to tell from the photo coloring.

    If so, it may be a little difficult to find the links - as gold bracelets for this model may be tough to locate.

    If it's a stainless steel - then much easier.

    I would first consult your local IWC Authorized retailer - who may be able to locate the parts through IWC's distribution/service platform. You can locate the nearest retailer with the link "find a retailer" at the top of this page, or using IWC's innovative iPhone application available on the Apple Apps Store.

    A nice watch indeed.

    We can't have "wanted to buy" enquiries here, since the forum is non-commercial. However, Schaffhausen should have parts in stock, and an authorized dealer should be able to help. Getting them will take some time and, as gold, be prepared for a little sticker shock.

    Thank you, yes it is the 18ct gold band. I will get the app, since I am in Oklahoma I think the closest dealer will be in Dallas.
    Thanks
