IWC's are good watches. Ususally understated and no one is going to cut your hand off for one or ask if it's real. A watch for when someone wants a time piece, not a status symbol as no one outside of watch people would ever look twice at them.

I've had this watch since '98. Been serviced twice. The most recent service last year, I replaced the bearing on the swing mass. It some play want wasn't winding the watch correct. I also had the 15 minute indiactors, and hands done again with luminova. When the service was done, my watch was within a few seconds a day acurate in 5 positions. I have the ticker tape somewhere. Very impressive job my friend did on the service.
