Sounds like it was a great day. I'd love to own a Portuguese one day.

Me Want!!


Well, I thought the bloke buying the Rose Gold Tourbillon was a git before but now I really hate him.

Of all the watches I featured on this thread you pick out the one that he turned up wearing.

I didn't realise it was his when I picked it up from the display tray. He had taken it off to try on the Tourbillons.

To be honest he was a really nice guy and he had no issues with me trying on and taking pictures of his beautiful rose gold Big Pilot Antoine Saint Exupery Limited Edition.

In all seriousness it was a gorgeous timepiece with immense presence on the wrist. I can see why you picked it out from this exclusive crowd Roman.

Well, not having an IWC (yet) I wore this, thinking it may stand out and may be a conversation starter. However, the manager of the jewellers had a piggin' 1972 double red SeaDweller on :cry:

your Sub is very nice and highly respectable... After reading this thread, IWC has moved up my ladder to #2 spot. Thanks for the posting(s).

Thank You for Your kind words about my Sub Mr Spider.

It is indeed a great watch and I feel lucky and privileged to own it. But that double red SeaDweller :drool:

I'm glad I have been able to help you view IWC in a different light. I certainly do and I feel I was very lucky to be able to handle and try on those extremely high end timepieces.

The Rose Gold Perpetual Calendar is in my dreams now. Maybe one day. :roll:

Well after hearing about how well Driver's BP keeps time I think I'll take these one instead.

I like it too, the sub and deepsea are the only two rolex I want to have. If it was posted in another thread it would be nice. :wink:
