I'm a little mixed with the current crop of IWC models
Some of them look really nice, like the 75th anniversary - it is superb, and even here, while I would prefer without the date and have the full track of markings for the subdial, it won't be a deal breaker for me.

I didn't notice this problem
for me, it is a visual effect due to the high position of the second hand. Thanks for your comments! Fx
The IWC Ingenieur Laureus edition with its blue dial. A coherent design
I like the balance and rugged aspects of the IWC Ingenieur. Never tried one on but I could play nice with my style of watches. Thanks for the great report. Bill
Thanks Bill!
The Ingenieur is a nice watch but it really deserves a more prestigious movement IMHO... Fx
