Get one or save up?

Here we go again….

Integrated watches has always been an interesting one for me. Love hate relationship 🙄

But, what do you guys think between these choices? I love the GP but should I just save up for the overseas?

Has anyone had wrist time with these and can offer some real world wearing experience?

Those are all good looking watches, but the Overseas is an end game, watch of a lifetime.

Also, that IWC is way overpriced.

·

If you've not had an integrated bracelet watch before, then try the cheapest & see if you can get on with it.

I don't like the whole Genta vibe, but did have an Aquis for a year or so. Just didn't get on with not being able to personalised it with straps.

Good luck 🤞🏻

Love laureato, especially chrono version

·

I tried on the IWC. It’s a nice novelty but one I think would wear off pretty quickly. It just felt like it lacked substance and definitely way overpriced as @thekris said.

·

Good things come to those who wait, save up for that Overseas. 😍

·

Get the one that speaks to you. Holy trinity or Jesus's disciplines shouldn't matter...

·

I tried the IWC on it wasn't for me I didn't like the fake screw's also a little small ,also tried the overseas on and put my name on the list (5yrs) ,the blue dial is amazing pictures don't do it justice

·

I don’t own any of the watches but i love IWC’s Ingenieur. But if you are patient enough… go save up and buy your ultimate dream watch VC 👍🏼

·

I’d really aim for the Overseas. Forget the trinity, I’m wholly convinced that it’s the most comfortable, least obvious and finest of the lot, and very much worth swinging for! 💯

Such a well finished beautiful time piece!

·

If you really want Overseas, you would still want it after buying one of them. I would scratch the itch with more affordable one and save for Overseas.

·

GP is the best of these IMO, but you should try all of them first.

I would get a twelve . Ingeneur is overprice. Vc I don’t know maybe u have money pouring out your house. I know gp u can get 2/3 of retail from chrono but price is still steep. I am trying f77 ng titanium next see if u want to tag along

Definitely don’t have money pouring out. It’s a dream save up.

But I have looked at the twelve. Just would like to try it on wrist first.

Personally I vote for the GP Laureato, but this as I prefer its design although the VC Overseas is also an awesome watch no doubt about that.

Alpine Eagle (St. Moritz) and Ingenieur are beautiful and well made watches but in my humble opion they sit just a tad below Laureato and Overseas. But all four watches have a lot going for them.

I chose the ingenieur tbh and never looked back
