Nice IWC Modernahab u have.
My favorite Schaffhausen.
I like also the other variations of the perpetual calendar, for example the gold with white dial.
No problem of the absence of a second hand, as there is no small seconds hand, i am happy.
Next, i like the aquatimer with blue dial, the Jaques Cousteau version.
Hand wound by the failure of the rotor that do not wind the main spring.
I will follow if you let repair your IWC, or if u will remove the rotor. For value reasons, it is better to repair.
I do not know if you want to sell your IWC, if i buy a watch, i like a good working watch with box and papers. No scratches, pampered by the first owner.
The 12 that lay under the moon phase dial.
Not a no go for me, luv it. But there are enthusiasts who complain.
I complain about small seconds hands, strange lugs which make a strap change a horror, hidden movements.

IWC would not say what happened but they fixed it and returned it within 10 day (pre-covid). That said, I kinda liked it in manual form...๐
