Thanks, Mike.

Trying to make sense of your post...
You are obviously referring to the Pilot or Ingenieur product lines as these are the only lines using the soft iron core. Yes you can question the practicality of the core but no more so than the use of a mechanical watch in the 21st century in the first ...
Hi Mike....Yes I was refering to the Pilots version....
...But no, not comparing stainless IWC with other gold watches....rather comparing IWC gold content against other gold watches of simular price. And just asking the question about the value of a gold IWC with it's iron core.... against simular priced gold...
