It's a Time Machine
cshimokita,
It can jump 100 years in a blink: It's a time machine!
One of the better perpetual calendar watches that truly is for the next generation...they even give you future century discs to replace the old ones.
Is the IWC boutique in Namiki dori?
Regards,

My IWC Spitfire Perpetual Calendar is back...
Picked up my watch from IWC Boutique in Ginza this morning. Over the year end the date jumped from 2017 to 2118 and had gone in for an overhaul... my papers are in storage but as far as I remember the Spitfire Perpetual Calendar LE was purchased in 2005-...

Yes Namiki Dori, 1-1/2 blocks in...
It's my daily wear watch... I was surprised by the new bracelets on the IWC pilot watches... mind you it's been awhile since I looked.
Thanks cpbmd...
Not sure what the industry standard is for overhaul work but they slapped a two year warranty on the watch which I appreciated. Just happy to have it back on the wrist. Casey
2 years is better than standard.
Typically the service warranty is 1 year at least for IWC and Patek which I have experience with. Rolex might be more now since their new watch warranty is 5 years witch is the longest in the industry. Beautiful watch. Wear it in good health.
hehehe... no rest for the wicked Echi
Should be a hot summer and has to be a bracelet, so it's a toss up between the two... What to wear on the planned over seas trip, mmmm we'll see ; )
Congratulations, Casey.
The joy of having a watch back from service is almost like having a new one. BTW, I think this is the first time that I reply to your "non-photography" post. 😊
I was talking to a friend in the US (East Coast)...
and we were comparing service (overhaul) prices vs. original list price... the percentage is about the same in both locations. Re: non-photo forum post... hahaha... I do have a small collection and I understand that many of the watch guys also take photos...
