It seems there is confusion over Patek and IWC here
I think some brands are more dependent on the paper trail than others, honestly. Patek being near the top of "needing everything". Perhaps you need not worry as much with an IWC Big Pilot -- more than many, this is a watch that stands on its own. Nor is i...
