Another "history" article on Monochrome:















I had this one (ref 5110???) but sold it and regret it.

Exceptional wrist presence and a killer dial. I loved it except  .  .  .  very uncomfortable to wear. Plus IWC replaced the fish crown on a warranty repair after my AD promised they wouldn't. That put me over the edge and away it went.

Still, mostly good memories.

Thanks for sharing.

That one is a 5002 which was the original Big Pilot from 2003

As to the fish crown, I got mine back once all the legal issues were settled.

Glad to hear you got the fish crown back where it belongs.

I really like the script logo...
