    I have a great deal of catching up here. I just parked my car in front of our house and just logged in for being away about 2.5 weeks. It's been great weeks in Italy.... my most favorite holiday country.

    I said to myself... no more watches but... I will post on this later: I bought a IWC Mark XVI mid-size at Hausmann in Rome for my wife. We were there while catching up a Cartier for my sister in law and then I asked if they could open the case of IWC's,,, and there is was... my wife really liked the watch at first site (she didn't know it exsisted..) ... I was glad there was no golden IWC Port chrono with diamonds...

    A great watch and it looks like a real lady big pilot on her wrist.

    But as said.... first I have to unpack my car... and do a great deal of reading here... I missed a lot.

    Meet you soon again here and here's an image from my holiday and the best holiday watch there is... the CFI!

    Greetings, Martijn

    Welcome back, I wondered where my

    fellow xxx75 partner had been recently. Italy is my favorite holiday spot as well, but I usually come back with extra pounds in body weight, not IWC's.
