    Hi to all forumners.
    Many of the old stuff will remember me and that I write very seldom here after the German forum was closed.
    Yesterday I completed a new item which was on my wishlist for years:
    The Filegerchrohograph Rattrapante, AKA "Jumbolino".
    It came with this complicated steel bracelet (I always wondred who assembles THAT . . . modern slavery to me :=)
    It's the Ref.# 3711.
    All the best
    Hans

    Domed crystal is unique vs the 3713,

    Hans!! A very nice surprise that you are back on the Forum! We've missed you.
    And what a great watch to come back with. I think the domed crystal really makes this watch something GREAT.

    A nice surprise Hans, to meet you again on the forum.

    Das Deutsche Forum ist Geschichte, only watches from this era appear occasionally :-)

    Viel Spass mit dem Klassiker und beste Grüße

    Hi Hans, certainly a big 'welcome back'! The 3711 is one of the best IWC's ever in my personal option. Actually, I've that bracelet on the original UTC and it's interesting that every single 'cushion' is separate part. Though it does size rather easily and it certainly is one of the most comfortable bracelets ever!

    Looking forward to 'hear' more from you.

    Kind regards,

    Bob
