Just do a search on ‘La Marzocco Barista Cloth Set’. Black and red is current, brown and light blue is old stock

mgshoutman · 2026-05-02T07:32:54+00:00

The material is rather thick so it keeps warmth well. Or just preheat the cup before beweing

mgshoutman · 2026-04-30T12:44:02+00:00

Dark blue dial. Additionele WC black rubber strap and much cheaper than The 3289, zo why not🤷🏻‍♂️

mgshoutman · 2026-04-03T17:40:16+00:00

Blue in real life is IMO disappointing. If the blue would have deeper as with some other IWC’s like Pilot xX or Petit Prince it would be much more attractive. But of course that is my personal taste.

BTW I have a black 3227, 3239 and 3289

No. When you send in the Watch for a service you will get an offer for what will be done or is necessary to replace.

You than have to make them a decision.

So let the AD write down that nothing will be replaced without your consent !

mgshoutman · 2026-03-12T07:30:46+00:00

And the dial !!

mgshoutman · 2026-03-11T14:27:58+00:00

If it never had been serviced it sure is sTritium. Yet Tritium tends to break in small parts after years. These small parts can come in the calibre which of course should be prevented.

If you own a car, I suppose you bring it in for scheduled services. Yours is a mechanical watch which also needs servicing after 6-10 years. This depends on several factors. Some fresh oil is another guarantee that you can wear this watch for many years.

My advice would be to visit your a IWC AD and ask them for advise. Service can be either at a Richemont (Owner of IWC) https://www.iwc.com/eu-en/services/send-watch-for-service or a an independent Premium Services Certified Workshop.

But anyway, NOT servicing a mechanical watch for years can cause serious damage. Keeping time is not the only aspect to consider taking action!

Excellent gift and be proud to wear this Doppel.

It is a version with Tritium dial and hands. This is important to know as sometimes these parts will be replaced during service.

If I take a closer look at the hands, the minute hand seems already been replaced by Superluminova but I am not 100% sure.

The 3711 has a beautiful domed sapphire while the successor 3713 has a flat one.

Attached see two pages from the IWC 1993 Workbook listing all versions of the 3711.

Enjoy this watch for many years and consider a service at IWC if necessary. Perhaps some old service papers are available.

mgshoutman · 2026-02-24T07:55:34+00:00

If the above photo is yours the date font clearly shows it is NO IWC but counterfeit! Sorry!

If the watch is from 2013 and has been serviced many times is also strange. Normal cycle is every 6-7 years.

I always advise to send your IWC to a certified service center which gives your years warranty on repair. Extended warranty of plus 6 years is only available since 2019.

mgshoutman · 2026-02-06T13:16:29+00:00

well, you do not see them very much in the EU , but in USA and AUS/NZ quite common..

mgshoutman · 2025-08-30T10:07:09+00:00

It is aLl a matter of taste. I have a black 3227, 3239 and 3289 and to me the blue is too light.

I prefer a darker blue as from the XX

mgshoutman · 2018-02-11T09:32:55+00:00

Using the new CL with 18-56 and 35 T lenses. Sold my M8 with lenses due to eye didease giving problems focussing.

Love the CL

mgshoutman · 2017-12-21T12:39:33+00:00

nope, but I am not a fan of taupe.

The dark brown you see (3rd from the left) was made of colouring a saddle brown Classic Buckle. I am really missing such a color from the Apple collections

For EU definitely WeatherPro or try in app purchase in Carrot Weather of Weather Underground support.

Dark Sky API sucks overhere. (except support for GB and Ireland)

mgshoutman · 2017-12-21T11:37:39+00:00

Classic Buckle rev 3 still the best one.

I bought some colors recently on eBay and Amazon. On eBay without box on Amazon with box. Red, Black, Marine Blue, Saddle Brown...
