    Made an imprompt decision to give it to a young man who managed to make it to his top secondary school choice here in Singapore as a Christmas gift, so sorry I won't have a wrist shot for this. May be when the young man is older (11year old now with a 62 year old watch, I think I am making his life a bit more difficult :p)

    Not a purchase but an arrival :)

    Without wanting to sound as if i'm at an Oscar ceremony I must thank a very good friend on this forum for making the introduction that led to this purchase and of course to my current wife ;) and daughters for contributing to the funds.

    IWC calibre 89 dating to 1952. Couldn't be happier and I hope "Santa" is as good to all of you guys.
