@ Maxvla... yeah, that Certina is very handsome.
 
Meanwhile... I hate IWC.
They keep sending me emails with their newsletter and they contain links to things like this:

And this...

Man... I HATE them!
 
(That Aquatimer has my name all over it!!!)
 
And check out the movement on this cutie.

Ugh... Just pure crap.

Just picked this baby up yesterday...it took me two years to set aside enough for it, but I finally have it! As a pilot, I've always loved the IWC Mark series.

^ Nice.

^ Very nice IWC. Love their pilots. 
 
I am not able to afford such a beautiful watch, but I wanted a pilot from one of the original five B-Uhr manufacturers (A. Lange & Sohne, IWC, Stowa, Laco, Wempe) so I ordered a Laco Pilot Miyota Type A which arrived this morning:
 

 
 
 

 
Awesome service from Laco, too. It took only a day and a half to get from Pforzheim, Germany to my doorstep in Southern California.

^ Nice! 
 
I love the simplicity and elegance of fliegers.

My flieger is also my favorite watch...

Grats on your new IWC and Laco watches guys!

@Borat, Something about that speaks class, all though I wouldn't wear it it's nice. Congrats.

I just watched a new How It's Made and one of the segments was the production of a Panerai watch. Much of it was automated so it would be interesting what drives up the cost. I love that show.

Those last two remind me an awful lot of the Ulysse Nardin Maxi Diver.  It's a good reminder

I love Ulysse Nardin watches...
 
@roadcyker
 
Ditto...too much automation for too much money...similar to the Rolex philosophy

According to this WUS thread The watch has been out for at least 7 months and was street priced around $600 at that time. These prices we're seeing now are not discounted other than the normal drop from retail (that is usually well over marked).

I dropped by the Certina dealer an hour ago but they didn't have it in stock. they have to call the main office to see if it's till available.
I'll know the price on monday

Nice thanks for checking it out. If you can, see if they will ship international if their price is better than horademoda €390.

The IWC is gorgeous.
The Sinn is terriffic and one of my faves!
The Laco is very nice too.
 
Congrats on some really nice watches.
