A nice watch, which deserve only soul to be great.
Hey, my friend,
Looking at your pictures reminds me my feelings when I discovered it a few years ago.

IWC Vintage Pilot - A quick photo update

Tending towards one or . . .
. . . at most a few watches is admirable. Not so much from necessity (as in, do we really need vast collections), but for the sense of purpose and it brings. If I were to pare my collection down to just one modern watch for everyday wear, it would be a ma...
Happy to see that you have found a new love!
I know that you have been seeking a keeper for a while. I love this watch. Let's try to get the Boston folks together sometime in the fall! Ginger
Thanks Ginger and all. Some further thoughts on the topic.
Hmmmm.....'keeper'......is a term that has yet to find a meaning in my search =0). This one seems to fit the bill for now. I've also considered a JLC 976 Grand Reverso as my daily wearer and buying (again) a Sinn EZM 2 Hydro as a stunt watch (always liked...
