I cannot believe that the IWC Porsche Design Oceans are still sailing beyond the radar. Marvelous design and perfect functionality still by today’s standards.

If memory serves me well it was 1983 when the Oceans came to light whereas it was already in 1980 that IWC introduced the Porsche Design Titan Chrono ref. 3700.

I am still waiting for a 3519 AMAG in my collection of Oceans. You're right in that their futuristic look gives them a UFO appearance when looked on sideways
Wear it in good health!
