IWC

Just regarding watches of course! 😊 I can‘t imagine to sell this IWC Minute Repeater ever again (if I am not forced to do so one day - who knows in these times?). Driving home from office where just 4 of us „hold the fort“. Hard times where it is helpful ...  

I remember wearing a rose gold model to IGOTT 2 in Las Vegas, where we had a Go-Kart event. Some our members were shocked! Could a minute repeater survive a Go-Kart vibrations and acceleration/deceleration? I'm happy to say the watch survived quite happil... 

Yes, this MR proves to be a daily wearer which is not too delicate (due to the construction=the MR module placed under the dial and not being part of the movement). I saw your PM. First answer: I am fully convinced of this car. I will send you a more deta... 

today!) But I'm sure we can all agree that one of the best things about it is what an enormous understatement it is. Truly it is for those of us who have spent some time gaining enough knowledge to begin to appreciate a watch of this complexity, sobriety,... 

I have admired this watch for many, many years. It is so pure and at the same time so strong and timeless. But it always seemed .. out of reach ... for me. Finally I found my personal grail. I had to have it. And even sold some other watches (including al... 

attractive!—so I'm wondering. FH

and the dial are as well as the case in Platinum. Best Thomas ...  

I'll call) collar thingy that gently slopes from the base of the hour hand to the dial, taking up the space needed for the hands to miss the hour markers. Simple, yet effective, in my view. One more exquisitely finished detail that simply makes sense… lik... 

I enjoy it very much that you appreciate my grail watch so much! „Collar thingy“ sounds very good. I have no .... idea ... how to call it. Hands base? „Guglhupf“ aka ring cake? 😎 We have to ask a watchmaker I am afraid. Hahahaha! Thank you very much for l...

I am torn. Because it is not the first time I posted this IWC. There are so many beautiful watches here on this site and I don´t want to be boring. All the best to you, too! Thoma

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend, too! Best Thomas

I really like the simplicity of it, so understated and complex at the same time 🔥

I have worn it most of the time since I acquired it in November last year. And I am still surprised what perfect daily wearer this watch is. Despite its complexity its is definitely not delicate. And at least my piece seems to be extremely accurate: +1 se... 

A very uplifting photo. The white dial and blue sweater go well together. Thanks for the pic. CB

In these times a suit with shirt and tie makes no sense. And so I choose comfortable clothing.

Do you have an audio/video recording by any chance?

I will send you a PM. Best Thomas

No message body

I will send you a PM. Cheers Thomas

Although it isn't the loudest. The reasons: a) the construction (the MR module is not integrated in the movement, which - on the other hand - makes the watch robust and reliable=b) the material. Platinum is not the best transmitter. Never mind.I have good... 

Hope we will see better times soon!

And that the damage resulting from all these measures (necessary or not) will be repairable.

bad decisions. But this is another story Regarding watches my bad decisions were always when I tried to compensate small things, that diesturbed me in the beginning, "intellectually". I persuaded myself with practicability, cost-benefit-ratio, resale valu... 

Yes, I am full in love with this watch... I also appreciate the very smart solution of the whole movement construction which makes this watch very robust, reliable and service friendly. So you have a good design combined with high functionality which make... 

It has several design elements that I do not typically like, yet here they look wonderful. I think it is because of the unity of design, each part complementing the others. Really successful vision and execution. Looking through IWC's current offerings, t... 

It is the 2nd generation with still the old, but revised movement 95290 (small seconds at 9), revised movement and sapphire glass. The dial in a smooth, silky silver and has therefore under normal light (not direct sunlight) a very soft character. Best Th...  

The domed crystal is very nice. The white dial looks a little “creamier” than in past photos. Superb. I hope you are well. CB

Yes, everything is fine. How are you? The dial is silver (Platinum) and has a very soft appearance you can see clearly in darker light conditions. In „normal“ daylight it is soft silver All the best to you and your beloved ones Thomas ...  

I have to note that the movements of your ALS play in a different world. But for me this IWC MR is somehow a bewitchung synthesis of many felicitous components. Hoping you are still ok and find sufficient phases of rest Thomas
