Perpetual Finds A Friend
My IWC perpetual calendar chronograph is now a teenager, and although many IWCs have come and gone through the watch cabinet, he's never had a friend. But thanks to my generous wife, an article by Nilomis, and a chance sighting, I got a new watch for Christmas!
Look at the second hands - hollow arrowhead tips! They match up perfectly when not split. A perfect gift in my stocking!

Yes, it's the split-second chrono; rattrapante or whatever you call it - the matching watch!
I know this a dial only a nerdy engineer could love - but beauty is in details, right?

The Rattrapante is another interesting watch. With the QP, you have a killer duo. [nt]
No message body
Without the second seconds hand visible they could be twins.
A very big congratulations to you and of course a big hug for the lovely lady.
Merry Christmas

What a great gift!
That perpetual is very cool though, I don't know that watch existed. Merry Christmas mate!
A perfect pair!
Thank you for reminding me about these.
I used to be obsessed about that PC model a few years ago

Congratulations Mike!
Looks like a permanent friend has been found for your IWC after all!the two make such a great pairing - and you are lucky to have such a generous wife 
I'm flattered to be part of this amazing pair...
Mike,
Congratulations (with a bit of envy).
Cheers,
Nilo
Of course your recent post motivated me to take a second look at this
I "needed" this watch!

A Decade Ago - I had (almost) the same pair of watches

I just found this picture - I knew I had the stainless steel variant with blue dial, but never put together the dates until I saw it next to my perpetual. Another reason for buying an IWC with the complete date display!
