    This new acquision has arrived, an unworn full set.

    Modern IWC are uncommon to me, but this one has a good part of vintage flair :-)

    So, it fits perfect including the "Wow effect" and the movement looks great as well.

    Thank you Mark.

    Indeed one of the most beautiful watches in my collection.

    The white dial variant would be fine as well.

    But I have a similar one :-)

    Congratulations Heiko, that is indeed simply a stunning piece. I really do appreciate your images of the movement, that finishing is superb. There had been a photo posted some time ago but it is now gone.

    Thanks for your posts and interest in this REF. 5703.

    In the meantime I have gatheres some more "rumors" about this rare watch.

    First hints to a PURE came up in 2011, but the final production had a delay of about two years.

    Finally it was available In 2013, but the limitation information was confusing.

    Some early rumors were spread with limitation of 500 pieces with white dial and 500 pieces with black dial ?!

    Currently you can find rumors, that only aprox. 300 pieces, including black - and white dial, have been really produced ?!

    So, I am interested in more detailed information about those rumors.

    By the way, my opinion is, this movement is worth a macro, because not many photos of this Piaget based movement are available on the web.

    Heiko, absolutely fantastic pictures - and definately your kind of watch. I love mine too (which is the white dial version).

    Wear in good health.

    Thank you Bob.

    This watch is always worth the effort for as good as possible photos, because it reflects mesmerizing colors.

    So, just another example, with an old light giant lens from the 80s.

    Greetings
