An IWC surprise

Our partners can sometimes surprise us at the most unusual moments. Obviously my girlfriend has been following my love for IWC watches and late yesterday evening she said "I think you are missing a Mark XII from your collection. I have one".....

As you can probably predict instead of heading for the brandy bottle I headed for an Ardbeg Renaissance to understand the context fully....

I am allowed to include it "pseudo-like" to my collection but she did say that I should get a mens Mark XII to match her ladies Mark XIi so she doesnt feel lonely. What a great challenge.

I asked her if she will become an IWC collector and she didnt say a word (unsusually). My goodness what lies ahead..

Unexpected surprises are the best kind,

Impressive addition to your collection.

Bill

Wow, the Mark XII looks like a ....

cuff link next to the Big Pilot. Nice addition.

Very nice Andrew!

You will probably get some severe competition collecting! Make sure though that you won't be bidding on the same items :-)

Kind regards,

Clemens

Maybe the surprise is she will get you one

I hope the same for you Andrew

"My goodness what lies ahead"? Fun Andrew >

Lots of fun :-)

Andrew....You have it all. Thanks....

for the pictures.

A perfect couple...

... both you and you girlfriend and the BP and Mark XII. Thanks for the story...

Norbert

is that the ladies' Mark XII?

...which is of course smaller than the "regular" one...and a very nice watch in its own right (and a bargain IMO most of the time).

Regards and compliments,
Michael

Yes it is the ladies' Mark XII. (nt)

A nice pair but ...

... one IWC virus is bad but when one's partner catches it, the consequences could be very expensive.

Fantastic story Andrew, a woman with taste! nt

This is a wonderful development!

Well done!

An IWC surprise

That's quite a surprise! Nice!

I did something similar to my wife as well... I turned to her last week and offered up my Tag Link which she loves, just became too small for me at this point.

Perhaps September is the month of giving???

:)

Really like it; my wife wears:

Lady Mark XII
Midsize pilot classic
Male size Mark XII
Mark XII GL

so... it's a girl thing I guess!
