WIthin my collection most of my watches are Steel cased. Only one is white Gold and I used to have a Titanium (case and bracelet) watch but that left my collection some time ago. I have a few steel bracelets including the GST Aquatimer and I also have leather and rubber straps too. Sapphire and plexi crystals complete the outside material features of my collection.
What range of materials are in your IWC collection ?

Steel and Titanium for me (1)
Nice subject Andrew, too bad that we can't post more than two pictures at a time so I will need several posts.
In these two pictures:
Steel case, croco strap for the BP and steel case, croco strap and display back on the Port Auto
Steel and Titanium for me (2)
Here we have the Titanium Aquatimer Split Minute on rubber bracelet and the steel Ingenieur on steel bracelet.
Steel and Titanium for me (3)
And finally, my first IWC the St Exupéry Chrono. Steel case and buffalo leather strap.
As far as I know, all crystals are sapphire with anti-reflective coating.
Three of these five watches also have an inner case of soft iron to protect the movement from magnetic fields.
Kind regards,
Clemens
I have a very small collection
my now discontinued AT Automatic, the Portuguese Auto and the CFDV on order all three in SS.
I really like steel but I wouldn't say no to a ceramic BP.
I would love MF's new VC Portofino in Platinum too.

Just ask MF...Nothing could be finer!
I am a white metals giuy and consider Ti one too.
