A feast for the eyes unfortunately less for the ears.

In White Gold, this one. Superb aesthetics, but acoustically, a bit weak. Now, if we consider the price / quality / complication ratio, it is a champion. Best, Nicolas ...

Very nice but always

Alas...

Possibly in my top 3 IWC of all time. Realy beautıful

Yes, agree with that.

Believe so. What are the dimensions Nico. 😉

42 or 43 mm, from memory.

Understandable cause of the complication. 😉

I would say more because of the movement size... There are much smaller MR...

Good to know. 😊

There are 37 mm MRs, indeed.

Just a note, looking at this wonderful dial: I can’t imagine the “current” IWC logo on a dial like this…

+++1!!!

Love the script logo and huge balance wheel...

+1 on the balance wheel, too.

Gotta say, it a champ like you!

ROFL! You!!!

That is not a joke. 😜

Stop it! :))))

I like this ref. and this specific model very much but in the end...

Compared to the platinum ( which I listened to ), definitely, but compared to the WG, too?

Probably closer to WG…

Too " dead ", the sound of the platinum version...

A feast for the eyes unfortunately less for the ears.

Alas, but this is a good introduction to MR.

One of the most affordable ones😁

A great choice, indeed. I started with this one, by the way.

And has this clean pocket watch look.

If it was not the fund another watch, I would have kept it.
