It's been a long time coming

Is been a very exciting day. Finally after many years (more than 10) of looking at IWC watchs, I am finally a proud owner of a Portuguese Automatic 5007. For years I've lusted over them. I've looked at the Big Pilot's, the Portuguese Chronograph and the Chronograph Classic, but always went back to the 7 Day Automatic. Just love the classic design.

I have been serious about this purchase for the last month. I have also enjoyed joining and reading the posts this forum. I do look forward to being a member of the IWC community and the custodian of such a great watch.

Regards,

Markus

Congratulations, it is a great watch! Which version did you get? We would love to see a picture or two of it. Enjoy it!

Kind regards,
Paul

Thanks, can't stop looking at it. The back is fascinating. It's the 500704

Congratulations Markus!

This is à contemporary icon and the uppdated ref 5007 version features the new cal 52010 dual-barrel movement which I think brings it to new heights.

Enjoy!

I will post pictures soon of my IWC traveling with me.

Welcome Markus and congratulations, that is beautiful watch and great choice! Please do post some images when you get a chance.

Congrats and look forward to the pics. Very nice watch.

Hi,

Sorry I haven't been on the forum much lately. I've been busy traveling and enjoying my watch!. I will be in Zurich for about a day and might have a chance to got to Schaffhausen Saturday morning. Any advice. I see the museum is open earlier on Saturdays. Any other things that can be recommend in Schaffhausen such as restaurants, other watch things, etc.

Will post pictures soon!
