I searched for one of these, on-and-off for about 6 years. During that time I acquired two other models of IWC that I always wanted. It was kind of strange that this one - being the most numerous watch ever made by IWC, ended up being the last in line.

This is a pretty rough pair of pics and the watch needs a gently polish with a cape cod, but I think it looks quite nice as is.

Hope there are some other IWC YC owners here on this excellent Rolex site.

Cheers

Love it. Almost looks like the old version of a Milgauss.

I think it seems a good alternative to a smooth bezel DJ of the same period both in size (36mm) and styling as well.

I am not familiar with the earlier Milgauss so perhaps a bit of google research is in order on my part.

Can I ask any of the viewers of this post if the images are still up? I moved them in photobucket and I can see them on my desktop but they have "fallen off" on my iPad.

I also cannot seem to see the "edit" button on the post - it is like I am not not eligible to see it? I was going to update the image links but cannot see an edit button?

Any advice appreciated.

On the post immediately above, I get an edit button at the bottom of the post. Just not available on the first post in the thread ... a mystery?

Edit option disappears after elapsed time.
