I love this watch for its simplicity. It was made to commemorate the Battle of Britain and was limited to 1000 pcs.

This design specifically recalls the 1936 - 1944 Mark IX and was particularly meaningful to me as my Grandfather flew spitfires during the war.

That Spitfire is da bomb! IWC should've reproduced this instead of that new Vintage Pilot they're hawking now.

My new Seiko below. I'll change out the band to plain calfskin eventually.

- 233J very different beast all together
- the 127 is the Fiddy & the 233 has a few extra complications such as manual wind with 8 day reserve, 12 hr GMT hand, hacking system.

Man it is THICK, approx 6mm (I should have gone for 4 mm)

I think that watch would be more at home on Flavor Flaves neck then on your wrist.

I just can't get down with these really BIG watches.

This probably doesn't count as 'Appreciation', it's not in the same league as most of the watches in this thread, but I just bought this on eBay:

I hope this meets with your approval (and I hope I didnt overpay too much for it)
