A preview of a new acquisition
Some of you might have seen me make a reference (on JLC forum) of a new acquisition. Here is a quick view - I am sure that this shot doesn't do the dial justice. This is the IWC Laureus Ingenieur - I have been the happy owner for only a few days now. When I have some time, I'll try to take some better photos that show off the wonderful blue dial.

Congrats!
A piece that doesn't often appear on the forum (if ever). I like how it hearkens back to one of my favorite models, the IWC ref. 666. The dial is a very pretty blue color. It looks very handsome on you! Cheers, Daos
Congratulations on the new catch, my friend. you're on a roll! ;)
Please post more pics of this ingenieur, Sancerre. Best, Nicolas.
Wonderful sunburst dial
Nice watch which - as nico pointed out - is quite true to its roots. The sunburst dial "pattern" and the blue colour is beautiful and was also available in the originals (and also on the Yacht Club which I am happy to own, although mine is silver/champagn...
agreed on the dial
It is a wonderful dial - looking forward to trying to catch it on (digital) film. Thanks! --Sancerre
Congratulations!
That's a beauty, for sure. Tell us more about this one when you get a chance. And enjoy it! Best, respo
A modern interpretation of a classic. Congratulations . . .
. . . on the tasteful acquisition, sancerre. Coincidentally, I'm wearing the Senator Sixties at the moment, much in the same oeuvre as the Ingeneur on your wrist. Cordially, Art
A favorite of mine as well....
and I like a lot of IWC's current production. My only (minor) quibble with the Vintage Collection Ingenieur watches is that they forsake the soft iron core around the movement which is the one of the principle qualities that I think the Inge should have! ...
you are right
They really all should have the faraday cage. Guess what, this one does not have the transparent back, and doesn't have the iron core. Other than that, I have no complaint - and that isn't a strong complaint to begin with. --Sancerre
Great catch
Congratulations on a rarely seen and gorgeous watch. Looking forward to seeing more pictures of it here. Richard
I’ve handled the standard vintage Ingy…
…I would describe it as SEXY! and that blue dial takes it to whole ‘nother level. Congrats! Drew
The blue is great
This is my first blue watch, and you are right, it is fantastic. Thanks Drew. --Sancerre
