Of course I understand your preference

IWC Il Destriero Scafusia Ref. IW1868
After the Breguet Marine Royale Alarm yesterday and the Hautlence Vortex Bronze this morning, here's another " beast " not often highlighted. Presented in 1993 to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the manufacture in Schaffhausen, the IWC Il Destriero S...
