    I know everyone wants to see real pictures of watches. So I am going to post pictures without much comment. Some of your questions will be answered. Some I need more info from tomorrow's meeting.

    Please note that I have included my Bucherer Big Pilot Perpetual in many pictures as a reference piece. It is 46mm and will provide a good comparison.

    I'll post ten pics or so at a time to get as much content up as possible.

    Thanks so much for taking the trouble to take all those shots and post them up here. Some fantastic watches there! Are there any that stuck out for you as favourites, having seen them up close and/or tried them on?

    Thank's for your time and effort Alan.

    about the world timer... Is there any hidden button in order to control the cities disk or not?
    If not. How can you read the world time if the cities disk not moving??

    Best regards

    So far, I really like the steel double chrono and the whole Spitfire line. The Miramars are cool as well.

    Plus anything ceramic looks fantastic.

    Wow, wow, wow... fantastic pictures. Thank you for posting Alan, I trust you also took sufficient time to look at these great pieces without your camera. I am also reminding myself that these will look even better in real life.

    Regards, Marinus

    Great photos...thanks so much Alan.

    One small item...it is likely that the green cloth strap on the Miramar models shown will be different in final production...more of web nylon look, with leather inside.

    Dimitris, I thought I read that the crown also controls the rotating bezel for the Worldtimer.

    Let's wait for confirmation from the attendees.

    Also, this is from the IWC web-site:

    If the wearer passes through one or several time zones, the time can be adjusted forwards or backwards in one-hour steps via the crown to show the new local time, even when crossing the International Date Line.
