    Exactly also my philosophy, Roberto. Count me in :-).

    The dial must be matte black (no white dial, please), and preferably include the 3 and the 9 hour numbers.

    I thought this was the post of the week. With the rest of us spinning every possible angle, to the contrary, Ma Elko was concise and to the point. Bravo.

    An exploded view of the UTC module, old reference:

    The wheel in the table has been changed by this latest version (on the right).

    And a picture of the older movement:

    I wish I could show the new movement and the inner part of the new case for comparisons but unfortunately I have not.

    Please note, all these info and contents were taken by past IWC forum's threads.

    Interesting Rob although this has to be quite old now and I guess/hope the two movements share little in common.
    But I would love to see the new movement explained even though I keep the faith for a BP without the PR (for the next CF Watch) in order to be acquired by as many collectors as possible.
    I wonder if Schaffhausen is reading the threads I hope they are.

    As a CF watch, I would prefer a simpler dial, so the Vintage AT or Ingenieur would be great. I'd lean heavily towards the AT, but that's just me. Boy I sure hope I get picked, though my chances are lkely slim. Haha.

    I would choose
    1-an ingenieur, 1A contemporary or 1B vintage,
    2- a Marx XVII
    3- a vintage aquatimer,
    with a specific color dial when/if the time comes to vote
