Where to start?
the "I dont like" list on their collection is big , big to the point i have to fold the whole page of IWC new collection and just forget about it...so basically they've been working for the past year + on getting the cases bigger the dials busier and oh switch colors and engrave marketing attempts on the case back ...
Pardon but PASS .

SIHH 2012: IWC novelties - new Pilot's Watches
2012: the year of the high-flyers The new Pilot’s Watches from IWC Schaffhausen IWC Schaffhausen gets off to a powerful startin 2012: the year of the Pilot’s Watch. Withfive new models, the TOP GUN collectionestablishes itself as an independent formationw...
Again...
...I just don't respond to IWC's novelties. Pilot's watches are supposed to be supremely legible -- presenting the information needed with clarity. Why then a 3-day date window? The press material tells us this triple date arc is supposed to bring to mind...
I unfortunately agree 100%
Too big, too self advertised and over the top..... gun. I would give a closer look at the world time pilot if it didn't have a triple date window though. This piece has some appeal for me ad would be very tempting with no date. Best,
Though im a big fan of IWC
i was happy when i heard the news that IWC was going to come up with in-house movements, but im very disappointed with the design. since that triple date window was only for topgun, i personally think that's neither TOPGUN nor classic & spitfire. and ...
Very impressive lineup
LOVE the new Spitfires! Though my favorite of the collection is the Pilot Double-Chrono Great stuff IWC
Love the Big Pilots.....
Love all the Big Pilots including the Miramar which is gives it a vintage and military look at the same time. I have loved the movement in this series too. Yes, they are big but they wear smaller than they are. Now if you only IWC can do to make them a bi...
interesting Mix
but nothing jumps out at me. however. i like the last one. i'm a Huge Fan of the Grey Dial. thanks for posting
Hit and miss for me
Here are my initial responses to the pictures. I reserve the right to change my opinion when I handle the watches in the metal! I like the colour schemes with the grey ceramic and red highlights. The ceramic case should provide the scratch resistance that...
Having lived and worked a plane's length from Miramar
and owned a dozen IWCs, you would think I would be more excited by these Top Gun models. But I'm not, for several reasons. First, Miramar is no longer a Naval Base, it's been given to the Marines. That doesn't negate the fact that Top Gun school started t...
The steel case back...
and the Stainless steel crown and pushers sticks out like a sore thump.....its neither stealthy or elegant. I'm a big fan a IWC Perpetual Calendar, especially the big pilots.....but this one does not have the same appeal to me. I have to say....its the cr...
I really like the old Top Gun Double Chrono...
It's a high-flying year for IWC's pilot range; and there are some good looking offerings. Really interested in seeing the new pieces but I really like the old Top Gun Double Chronograph; and it's going to be difficult to convince me away from it. A split-...

If they did more than that....
Then the whole line would lose its identity, which wouldn't make sense to any IWC fan.
Would LOSE?
to me it already did ... the might not be as ugly as im feeling but this sense of lack of creativity and playing a game which already played by others" the colors Swinging" Faisal
I really like the spitfire chrono perpetual in RG
A nice and legible IWC perpetual calendar. And I hate to admit it but I think the aeroplane-shaped rotor is actually pretty cool..
agree on both counts
that perpetual is the one watch I kind of llike, good dial and nice movement. Best, Andreas
This is the one that stood out for me as well.
I don't really care about the airplane rotor, it would not be a deal breaker for me. I think the dial looks great with the month/date windows. I also like the brushed gold treatment of the case. Very nice. Stewart
