    I am not a regular here, despite being a proud owner of a Da Vinci Laureus and actively looking to acquire my next IWC.

    However, rumor has it that:

    • This is coming in December 2014, boutique-only item.
    • LE of abt 250 pcs.
    • Blue radiant/metallic dial, just like the PPC BP Le Petit Prince.
    • Ditto for the arabic numerals and seconds / 5, 10, 15, etc. markings in rhodium-style colour/finish.
    • Ditto for the seconds and hour hands shape/design.
    • Steel case.
    • Brown pilot strap, possibly no pins/rivets.
    • Date aperture window as per IW5004-02.
    • Caseback engraving.
    • Retail price at abt 16,200 Eur in Asia (exch. rate depending).
    • Ref. No. not known.

    I have seen a low-res picture, not on the web.

    Will update if any more info received or if anything of the above not confirmed.

    According to Erwin's photos, I think it will be limited to 1000 pieces.

    ...Really hoping that I will be lucky enough to get hold of one!
