    Thang! Congratulations!

    I remember you talking about this at the beginning of the year. It's a Herculean effort and truly looks like it was a labour of love. Such a generous contribution to our community and watch collectors in general.

    Have you brought it to the attention of John Mayer - apparently his touring nickname is "Big Pilot".

    Thang, as I had the privilege to preview the nearly finished beta version a while back, you already know my thorough respect for your project. IWC themselves might not have done it any better. Simply stunning.

    BIG stuff - wonderful!

    One question: wasn´t the 5004-13 a LE of 500 pcs?

    Greetings,

    Thanks Andreas, the 5004-13 I'm sure was a limited production number - but it was not an official limited edition according to Schaffhausen.

    Best wishes,
    Thang

    Anthony, thanks for your kind words.

    Yes I've told John about it- and he was very appreciative of the official manufactured numbers for the 5002 Platinums which I researched and shared with him.

    Best,
    Thang

    Thang - what a fantastic piece of work, and an excellent encyclopedia of BPs - this will be my go-to site for years to come.
    It is clearly a labour of love, but it is also extremely thorough and professional - as much so that it should be an official part of the IWC website if you ask me.

    And while I'm at it - this effort alone deserves a special edition BP :-)
