Thoughts on latest BR 05 release ?
I like the style but prefer the white face version. Not as nice as the Bulgari octo though.

I love it! Especially the solid gold version 😝 will definately try it on as soon as I get the chance (the steel version I mean)

Agreed.
IMHO, it's not a very good design; looks like a work on progress to me.

I like it, to he honest. But definitely the one with full minute marker on the dial instead of plainer version.

For the Oris one...i quite like it too.

Thoughts ?

I kinda like the overall looks of this one. Curious about the movement too
I'd seen those. I was attracted in by a website that said they were selling at half price. But when I got there, they weren't 😀

The size of 42mm is pretty good for me given it's a cushion case. The blue one was tempting me, but there are a few things I'd change about the design I think, so was happy to pass.

Sorry if this question has been raised before. I have no recollection whatsoever but i just want to ask, is it possible to put automatic movement in this night diver aquaracer ?

Can't see why not, it's the same case... only thing that might be an issue would be the date wheel, could be slightly out maybe?

Yes, apart from wanting to know whether or not i will fit, i also curious to know, whether or not it will function perfectly.

Can't say 100% without trying it but you should be able to, I've looked into some swaps like this before and stem length, diameter of the holes in the hand, height are the tricky bits, but in this case all the parts are in the calibre 5 aquaracer.

Function perfectly? it won't function as well as quartz 😉

Just secured this badboy which I’ve been hunting for a year or so. A full set 3706 on bracelet, first dial with both tritium and lume dots iso stripes. Will post more when I receive next week 😀

Wow that is awesome, I am going through an "instant boner when anyone mentions IWC"-period myself! They truly are an amazing brand

I like the brand too but their prices are not justifiable, IMO. I think that is the Richemont ownership though.

This is pre Richemont. They did have a large chunk in JLC and Lange already at the time. The watch retailed for plus 4k euro in the mid nineties so not cheap.
