Yes. I bought my IWC from a Malaysian watch place online. It was a long time ago and forgot the name, but there are many in Asia that are 100% legit. Better Swiss watch scene in Singapore than Switzerland from a consumers perspective.

I love to play off watches now and again. I seem to lease them as I turn them over fairly frequently..
I just had this Glycine Combat relumed at IWW.
Wonderful watch.


Hacks, winds, is automatic, glows nicely now.

Does that band cut off the circulation to your wrist at all???

The part that allows the watch to wind up to 7 days is made by a company down the street from our Swiss office. I think that part alone is like $60; not to mention the customization IWC does to it.

Yep, Big Pilot in Stainless. I love the 7 day reserve!!!

My other watch I wear in summer a lot doesn't have the amount of days left for the power reserve dial. Just an indicator with a red zone on the bottom. I wish it had a more precise time table.

The platinum Big Pilot is on my Lottery list, should I ever win it. I love the blue dial and strap.
