I got me a new iwc. But I'm curious about the bracelet. Were these bracelets made by iwc or unroc? Or is unroc just the buckle? If it's a original iwc bracelet that would be great...Thanks people!
They were likely made by Unroc for IWC. Watch companies back then generally just made movements. Most of the other parts were made by specialty contractors to the specifications of the particular watch company. Exceptions are the Asian manufacturers (Seiko, Citizen, SeaGull, etc.) which tend to be vertically integrated and produce everything in-house, and Rolex, which over the years acquired most, if not all of their outside contractors. Hope this helps, gatorcpa
