Very impressive watch indeed!

The dark crown is due to sandblasting titanium which makes it very dark after sometime. They should have polished it instead in order to have an even color matching the case.
One negative point is also the difficulty reading the time. You can barely see the small hands with the extremely complex/busy dial.
But overall It’s a great looking watch.

It is clean. If i find a good pre owned Portuguese Perpetual Calendar with a full year window, and box and papers are complete, than i get it. So this IWC’s are on my list to catch: A Portuguese/Portefino. A Portuguese Perpetual Calendar. A Pallweber 150....

I'm not a big fan of tourbillons,

but the dial looks fantastic and the overall appearance of the watch is very impressive, at least in the picture. The huge case frightens me not so much because there is really a lot to see. An eye magnet... Thank God the dark crown bothers me so immensel...
