IWC

What a great idea to start an IWC forum which is long overdue! So I have the chance to post it again: My Minute Repeater 5242 in Platinum. It’s the second generation with still the nice movement 95920 and so the seconds at 9. I wanted it so badly since fo...  

Beautiful dial and numerals. And the watch fits your wrist perfectly. May I politely ask how does the minute repeater sound like? I ask because some people have said that one can hear the mechanism on a IWC minute repeater.

I have learned that the IWC Minute Repeater is very reliable and robust compared with “typical” MRs because the construction is modular. That means that the MR module is placed between the dial and the movement not integrated in the movement. That makes t... 

Please PM me if it is not too much trouble., I would love to own a minute repeater but I cannot quite afford a Patek!

May I also request for this link? Thank you so much.

And I know it wears very comfortably. It looks super! George.

Yes, it wears extremely fine. 😊 You wrote you “know”: are you also a lucky owner? Best Thomas ...

Keep enjoying and loving it so much! Best! Abel

thank you so much for your kind and warm words. I appreciate your opinion very much! I have sent you a PM with the link to a video on VIMEO where I tried to capture the sound. Cheers Thomas

... a beautiful timepiece!! How thoughtful of you sending the link!! I will follow it and listen your watch!! Appreciate so much your kindness! Have a nice week end!!

My pleasure. 😊

Thanks for helping me develop this new interest for IWC I think this piece is very beautiful, hope you enjoy it in good health.

daily wearer which I couldn’t imagine at the beginning. But the 5242 seems to be robust and accurate which is a big plus for a normally rather delicate complication like a Minute Repetition. And thanks a lot for your kind words! 😊 Best Thomas

I am an IWC fan. So glad to have the forum now. I did not know IWC made a minute repeater. This might be very bad for my bank account. There is an AD in Boston ,two hours south of me. I must go try to look at it. I hope you have a good day. CPB

Reading that from you is a real honor for me since I appreciate your taste and style very much. Thanks a lot for your kind words. Cordial regards Thomas

I would love to hear what it sounds like. How many millimeters is it? Does it wear comfortably.? Wear it in the best of health.

Yes, it wears extremely comfortably. The case has 42mm but the lugs are formed very thoughtfully. All the best Thomas ...
