Congratulations! It's so much lovelier than one might expect. There are so many nice little details (the numbers in Schulz's handwriting, the Woodstock-yellow tip on the seconds hand, the paw print on the crown, etc) and the dimensions are perfectly vintage.

I bought mine just after selling my Mark XX and while this doesn't possess the IWC's luxurious dial and case finishing (nor should it considering the Seiko's MSRP is literally 8% of the IWC's), all things considered I 100% think this is the better fliegerโ€”more durable, more accurate (despite the 4R movement), more comfortable, and certainly puts a bigger smile on my face whenever I look at it.
