I have to say that this was a blind trade that worked out. I was a little Leary about this watch having never seen one up close. It arrived today and I think it is one of the finest pieces I own. It has a cool integrated inner bezel dial control on the chrono reset pusher. The integrated bracelet is also very nice and comfortable. Even though I was never a fan of this type of bracelet this one works for me. Just wanted to put up a few shots of the new piece.

Great watch, congratulations. :thumbsup:

I've got the same movement in my Pilot's Chrono. Worth noting that it's refinished/modified by IWC to a higher standard than a "regular" 7750 (as I'm sure you already know).

Very nice - IWC divers are not as appreciated as they should be in my opinion. Kind of overshadowed by some of the other IWCs.

Thanks guys, I think it will be a piece I hold on to for some time. Recently I started to migrate to smaller watches. This one has a nice presence without being to large.

I love the aquatimer, tried one on only a few days ago in Valencia. Superb quality and comfort, I like the rudder strap also.

Great pick up! :drool:
