    Custom strap for IWC 3878.

    I received a new strap a few days ago, after quite a bit of delay.
    Not the vendor's fault and credit to him, he stayed in touch to let me know how things were going. Unfortunately lockdown in Vietnam has been exceptionally strict and really impacted upon people there.

    I fitted the new strap to the IWC and it's had a couple of days wear.
    I am very taken with it and the effect it has on the watch overall. So with that in mind I thought I'd throw up some more photos and a short review.
    Ziczac Leather is already well known in watch circles as a good strap maker and this is my 1st strap from him(altho there is also a custom strap in progress too).

    The grey and the patterning and the variation of both the colour and the drop shading, really IMO do a great job of picking up the colour of the dial and its colour shift and sunburst. It's very different from the other straps I have for it and really does a great job of making my wrist a little more interesting than just the watch head.

    This cost me @€55 delivered including the dreaded VAT and was very well worth it IMO.

    Looks like a bargain, may I ask what caused the delay? CITES regulations?

    No, luckily nothing to do with CITES. Vietnam has been in very, very hard lockdown on and off over the last year. So custom orders were delayed, no-one in the workshops or offices and curfews to boot.

    ZicZac to their credit offered to refund the order a few times but I was happy to wait and glad I did.
