Finally got a call from the IWC boutique today. Itโ€™s the only piece coming to Beirut. Iโ€™ve placed the order back in SIHH 2019 and chose my individual number ๐Ÿ˜‰ The sand color ceramic is so unusual. Itโ€™s a love or hate affair. I personally find it so beauti...  

awesome mil-spec look

"Mojave Desert" is what...

IWC calls it.

Indeed! [nt]

Now that is AWESOME!

I love it. I would put it on black canvas w/ sand stitching. BAM.

It was originally released with a sand cloth/canvas strap

Not sure why that changed: ...  

Yeah I know. Was in SIHH and tried it on

 
 By: Makilla : February 28th, 2020-16:33
Fell in love with the canvas strap. Apparently they switched to rubber instead in order to avoid fast strap aging. Light color canvas will get dirty and age in a matter of weeks ...  

Well at least they fixed the day/date...

Itโ€™s awesome

Is that really a rubber strap???

Definitely one of the more interesting pieces released last year. Congrats.

As some others have said, Iโ€™m not sure what they did with the strap originally presented. It does need something else, and perhaps a contrast might be good. Looking forward to more pictures of this one.

Thanks for the kind words! I am already trying to find a nice strap.

 
 By: Makilla : February 29th, 2020-08:00
Will definitely post new photos once the new strap is on

Big Congrats!!!

I see hundreds of new releases but this is the only one I would actually pay for, just awesome and so different from the usual boring stuff. S

Dear Laurent,

many congrats for your new Pilot acquisition. It is fore sure something very special. I like the day and date windows in the color of the dial. All the best and wear it in good health Thomas

Dear Thomas,

 
 By: Makilla : March 1st, 2020-03:15

Too kind, dear Lauent!

I will do so. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Congratulations to this absolutely unusual watch!

 
 By: jkvs : March 1st, 2020-05:36
The ceramic is stunning, maybe unique. To make things round you might look for a leather strap that matches the color of the dial... That would be a killer combination ๐Ÿ˜Š

Merci mon ami :) [nt]
