display only for now. There is a waitlist for it.

commented on IWC Ingenieur 40 ·

Similar for Hong Kong. I got a pre-order confirmation email without paying any deposit.

No, it isn’t. It’s a 6R35. Only 8L35 and above are undecorated GS movements.

It’s need vs want at play

commented on Ever buy a practice strap? (Plus what do we think about suede?) 🤷🏽‍♂️ ·

I am an OCD guy and can’t stand lesser quality straps and buckles. I always try to find third party straps with the same taper as the original strap so I can use the OEM buckle. Seude looks phenomenal but I prefer flatter ones without inserts. 

IWC boutique carries a lot of options that you can play around with. I got my canvas straps from boutique for both my IWCs.

commented on Anyone have a luxury watch modder they trust? ·

Good luck my friend! my roadster has gotten much more wrist time after the mod. Feels like a new watch once again. And you can still wear it with your OEM bracelet. 
 

I can share more details about the procedure and the placement of the holes when you can find someone to do it in SF. 
 

I can say it’s definitely worth the effort!
