IWC convert...

After a meet up with fellow WIS in Boston Ma, I was lucky enough to handle the Aquatimer 2000 & Pilot Chronograph, and immediately it clicked why folks love IWC watches. About a month later, I picked up a Mark XVII and 'connected' with the watch which is a BIG deal for this 'flipper' of Omega, Tudor, Tag Heuer, and Breitling to name a few. I found the build quality, design details, and most important fit on the wrist was spot on. Also found out IWC had their start thanks to a man from Boston...never knew that!

Welcome to the IWC Forum where you will meet very knowledgeable collectors that are an incredible resource on the history and tradition of IWC watches. Enjoy your new IWC and wear it in good health.

Completely agree about the connection you feel with your first IWC. Similar to you I have flipped a few watches over the past few years, but the quality and design of an IWC is hard to take off your wrist. I'm considering going after the Mark XVIII, obviously a very similar watch. Also great pictures!!
