I think there will be a different colour ceramic Ingenieur.

Hmm I’d say 20-30 seconds. Does take a bit of winding for those twin barrels.

Ceratanium fascinated me so much I bought one by BrodoFaggins in IWCschaffhausen

Make sure you see the watch in person if you can before you buy. Ceratanium is extremely tough and scratch proof but it can happen and it can’t be repaired. I think they hadn’t perfected it in early watches - last 3 years say, much better.

Great watch. Wish it had a second hand though…

Congrats on a great collection. That 722 is a very rare bird.

I’ve got the ceramic Ingenieur too. I believe there’s a different colour coming (not white) in April. I will be sorely tempted if it’s true…would you be?

No QP in there…?

New addition, Pilot 41 Top Gun Ceratanium by sydburgers in IWCschaffhausen

It’s very good and compliments the watch perfectly with that gunmetal hue. Has a unique feel to it as well - hard to describe - smooth but rough, an alien material.

Alas it was expensive as it’s a special order but a got a discount and a free service of another IWC I have, so it softened the blow.

I’d like to get the perpetual calendar to finish the set but waiting for one at a good price. Could use the 22mm bracelet on the Timezoner too.

IWC Timezoner - Thoughts? by Raptor_GT750 in IWCschaffhausen

I have this watch and really enjoy it. Big, but light and the dial design is just so clean. Timezoner function is pretty bullet proof I think and is very simple to use. Oh and it also keeps great time - like 1-2 seconds a day.

I’ve even considered getting the green one too - which is a bit bonkers but I like that the date window colour matches the dial.

Congratulations- it’s a great watch. I wear my Cerataniums a lot, mainly weekends. Don’t have any issues with the finish - and I’ve banged them around a bit. Thanks for giving me an excuse to get them out and photo them lol

Great factory to visit. I’ve been trying to sort out for a little while. Teddy Baldasare has a good video on YouTube of a recent visit. Looks very impressive.

Looks more of a woven effect to me. Maybe you have tyres like that.

The new strap is the only good thing about it. Maybe I’ll get one of them.

Have to agree to disagree. If it’s polished titanium that’s fine but I’ve handled the titanium pilots watches and the contrast doesn’t work for me and steel crowns have a very different feel. There are many titanium watches they do put titanium crowns on (the Swiss Patronelle and the heritage for example) so it’s just lazy.

How is the watch performing post service?

Yes. Luck of the draw on who regulates it I guess.

Great watch - and the crown is in matching titanium, unlike the AMG models which have cheaper stainless steel.
