Wednesday watch - IWC Portuguese Rattrapante 3712 ...
Team,
By sheer coincidence, since Jocke is visiting Richard and Maria Habring (check here: www.watchprosite.com
, I'm wearing a Portuguese Rattrapante, that's a creation of Richard Habring during his IWC times.
Pictures from this gray morning.
Looks big, but is 40mm and thin
Dresses perfect
And I love this complication.
Quick note: This Portuguese Rattrapante is not a modern re edition but an original from the 90's.
It took a stroke of genius to convert a plain Valjoux 7750 into a Rattrapante chronograph.
A great Wednesday to all.
Cheers,
Nilo

It's a 90's watch ...
At that time a 44mm watch was considered, even by me, as gigantic. Cheers, Nilo

After 15 years of brain-washing
nilo, After 15 years of brain-washing by the big watch industry, these words seem incongruous with IWC: "Looks big, but is 40mm and thin..." But there it is in real life as proof of perspective... Regards, MTF
Well one, Nilo!
I especially like the second shot where you can see the depth of the dial such as the registers and numerals. Relief on a dial is a BIG bonus for my taste.
