Bronze IWC Spitfire

Quite like the look of these in the new blue face and strap. Having never owned an IWC, am interested in peoples views and experiences of the brand. I have also enquired about one of the new Tahoe models.

Robust, handsome watches like I suspect?

I had the date / time bronze 39mm Spitfire.

Nice watch, sat well on the wrist and loved the combination between the green dial and bronze case. Kept good time too.

Ended up trading it as it as I thought it was a little small and didn't like the way it aged.
Tried cleaning it using a number of suggested ways but could never get it "like new".

Good feedback, thanks. This new one is 41mm, which is a nice size for me.

I need to find some social media shots of how the bronze ages - the panerai bronze watches can go very different to new.

Not sure if this helps.

Eventually the case matched the winder
