We have those threads to document watches we have and are expecting. But, I do not think we have a thread to cover the watches we see when out and about. I had a meeting this week with someone wearing this....

I like that a lot, but would like it a whole lot more in SS or WG

It looked surprisingly think/chunky for an IWC. It did not help that he had a fit bit on as well rubbing up against it.

I work in banking in London, so see quite a few 'high end' watches.
On my bank of desks we have a Patek Phillipe Aquanaut (on rubber band), and IWC Flight Chrono, more Subs than you can shake a stick at (great watches, but soooooo common here) and a nice selection of Omegas and Breitlings.

However, my personal favorite is the Director (yes, powerfully built) who wears a Seiko Recraft with a rattly bracelet and a green dial.

Unfortunately most IWC watches are thick and chunky particularly the ones with complications. This watch is 16.5mm thick so thicker than a Rolex DeepSea. It would be like wearing a block of flats on your wrist. Nice looking watches but they really need to learn how to minuturise the internals better to get the case thickness down.

Perhaps, but not so much as needing the whole fking post quoted! The text on its own would’ve sufficed.

Same here but in NYC. I envionsioned this in the same vain as the original "Supercars, what rarities have you seen". Rare and interesting watches. Doesn't matter what price.

Pistonheads…grumpiness matters!
You’ve been here long enough now to know that by now.
