Year of the Ingenieur: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Mon, 21 January 2013 09:43
Well, folks, they're officially out there, so lets have at it, shall we? What's your favorite? Your least favorite? Do you think they nailed it with the 40mm ref. 3239? And gee, there sure are a lot of display backs, huh?
For may part, I'd gladly sell all of my worldly possessions -- 'cept the TG BPPC -- for the Constant-Force Tourbillon ref. 5900, and probably still come up short, while the Carbon Performance ref. 3224 leaves me cold (is there such a thing as too much carbon fiber?).
The Silberpfeil Chronograph ref. 3785 is drop dead gorgeous with that engine-turned dial, while I'm not sold on the color scheme of the Dual-Time ref. 3264.
It's nice to see the Titanium Double Chronograph back ref. 3865 with a new dial color, and it's even nicer to see that IWC didnt forget our favorite Dark Lord of the Sith; Darth Vader, your Ingenieur Black Series ref. 3225 is ready.
And finally, the 40mm knocks it outta the park.
So, swing away, boys. All I ask as that we keep the discussion civil; remember, different strokes for different folks and all that jazz.
