Back to the future again
Kong,
Thanks for the real-life in-person photos and impressions.
Good to have feely-touchy reports.
I'm in 2 minds about back-to-the-future editions.
On one hand, I like that we get a flavour of the originals that never can be found by ordinary folk i.e. not those with $million and private museums.
On the other hand, perhaps we should let bygones be bygones and not hang on to "icons"; we should seek true "faith" and advance design. Or do w think that design is just a Circle of Life? Discuss......................
Regards, MTF

Longines Legend Divers Watch
Anthony, Longines also did a 1960's remake of their diver's watch and its looks quite similar to IWC's. Think it was launched last year. Cheers! Lionel

Thanks, Kong for these additionnal pics
The only thing I regret on the Pilot and on the Aquatimer is that IWC didn't find a solution to make their luminova less green , and more Vintage...A creamy color should have been nicer, IMHO...And woild have lead me to go on them... But there are again t...
