The ready-to-wear strap is 115 × 75 mm. For a smaller or larger wrist I make it in the right length: order your length.

What I'm asked about the IWC Pilot IW3891-04

What strap size does the IWC Pilot IW3891-04 take?

The IWC Pilot IW3891-04 needs 21 mm between the lugs, usually 18 mm at the buckle. It's the size I've been fitting on it for years.

Can the strap on the IWC Pilot IW3891-04 be changed?

Yes. It has spring bars between the lugs: with the right tool the strap comes off in a minute. If you'd rather not risk a scratch, I do it in the workshop.

Can I put a leather strap on the IWC Pilot IW3891-04?

Yes, in 21 mm leather. On a 45 mm chronograph I like box calf: it holds its shape and carries a substantial case.

Which strap do you recommend for the IWC Pilot IW3891-04?

A 21 mm box calf. You'll find it ready in the 21 mm collection. If you'd rather have something built on your wrist, the Casati atelier.
