I could not agree more. Just love this Aquatimer 3536
This is one of the few IWC I would love to own some day. Just love the no nonsense toolish look to it and the titatnium case and bracelet combo is just super cool. 👍

One of my favourites, mid 90’s magnificence! Fliegerchronograph 3706

such a great watch. with the uber classic 3705 going bonkers price wise, i think these 3706s are a steal

+1 for the 3706. These are just great looking watches and so classically styled and like stated before, are a fraction of the price of the 3705. You get such a comfortable and stylish bracelet as well which unfortunately doesn’t come on the ceramic version. If you think about it the 3705 is technically a two-tone watch, no? With the caseback, crown and pushers being steel. It’s funny we don’t think about it that way like with the classic gold and steel. Anyways, my contribution to the 3706 fanfare...

Is there a particular ref for the blue dial Ingy? I need to put it on my radar 😉
Ref. 866AD (date) and 866A (No date - rarer)

@ryanbk Dibs on that incredible Yacht Club II ! A fantastic and underrated watch, especially the automatic 38mm jumbo version. So many of them ended up overpolished, which ruined the unique finishing/brushing on the bezel. If you ever decide to part with it, please drop me a line. Cheers!

Hi all, just wondering if anyone here has a photo of an IWC Yacht Club next to an Omega Constellation "c-case" model (such as 168.029, 168.017 etc). Just wondering how appreciable the size difference is.
