Put the £300 into your IWC fund. You’ll not regret it. As long as you’ve got something to wear in the meantime, resist the urge to get yet another daily and save up for the watch you really want.

It’s a Trident Pro 600. Not sure if it was Ltd edition. Don’t think so.

Me too. Last time was in Schipol I was very drawn to the Flieger.

Mate of mine on the GC has one…yellow dials.
It looks really good, nice clear features and he’s delighted with it.
I was tempted for one but never pulled the trigger…bit large on my dainty wrist.

The Big Pilot watches are exactly that - BIG! But if anyone can carry it off, its Geoff Capes!
They also do a set of cufflinks to match, in the same design as the crown. Not cheap, granted, but I don't think too crazy, at (from memory) about £150 a pair (if you go for stainless steel). Might be a nice way to ease yourself into IWC ownership! In fact, I'm putting them on my Christmas wish list this year.

If you mean the car Nathan’s in, it’s a Ghibli Cup.
As for the watch, I’ve no idea!

I have just sent my ladies cocktail watch off to the WatchGuy. They/he couldn’t fit it in for a service earlier this year, but they can do it now. Hurrah! I hope I haven’t offended anyone by describing it as a Ladies watch. But there is no flippin’ way it would fit on the wrist of a hairy bottomed geezer! Even after hormone therapy.

It’s an Omologato Panamericana - this is the Swimming Pool colour. Red, yellow, brown (probably my favourite of the others) and blue are available

Oh dear. I wish I hadn’t asked. Just visited the website. Lots of good looking timepieces at reasonable costs.

I bought it and was concerned that the build quality would be a bit H Samuel but I was very pleasantly surprised how good it was for the money when it turned up.
