Its also been about 11 months since I have owned a VC. After getting to see one of these in person this past weekend I cant stop thinking about it, or how the new one with the new bracelet belongs on my wrist

I LOVE THIS WATCH!!!!!!

Launch Mini · 28 September 2006, 02:34 PM

5 months, congrats on the self control.

My name is John..
It has been almost 4 months since my last purchase ( for myself) of a watch.
I have a great feeling, that I will be slipping off the wagon this friday

Uncle-AJ · 28 September 2006, 03:51 PM

You guys need help.

JJ Irani · 28 September 2006, 03:56 PM

My name is Irani...JJ Irani...and it's been just over 7 months since my last purchase!!

Hey Roger, that VC is a beauty....go get it, pal!!

walds11 · 28 September 2006, 06:29 PM

Nice Roger. By the way, how do yo ulike the new IWC Pilot's chrono? I was thinking of getting one on a strap. I never saw the bracelet in the flesh, but I am not crazy about it. I like simple bracelets like the oyster.

padi56 · 28 September 2006, 06:55 PM

Love the dial Rodger but not 100% sure with the bezel,like the subs and second hands.The movement Cal.1137/36 is based on Piguet 1185,and the base for a number of modern chronographs of other major brands. Like the Royal Oak Chronograph Cal 2835, Blancpain Monaco 2000 Flyback, plus the Omega cal 3033/3133, a real fantastic chrono movement,with a great pedigree.

dman · 28 September 2006, 08:44 PM

That is a grail watch Roger. Just a beauty and a pleasure to have on the wrist, at least for the 5 minutes I wear it everytime I am at my AD. That would be a great purchase.

28 September 2006, 09:04 PM

Hi, my name is Al and it's been 12 days since my last watch purchase.....where's that wagon gone?!

C.J. · 28 September 2006, 10:21 PM

That would fit in the collection just wonderfully, Roger

mike · 28 September 2006, 10:31 PM

That is a beautifull watch Roger!!

Definately a great addition!

Oh by the way, my name is Mike, I've been watch buying free for a few months....and I'm getting the hell off that wagon today!!!!!

My name is Ed, and I succumbed to the siren call this week.

Mr. K · 28 September 2006, 11:02 PM

My name is Mark and it has been 11 months since my last Rolex purchase.

But I must admit I did buy a seiko and citizen in that time. I know, but I just needed a quick fix, just a little something to get me by.........

Oh, and 5 watch boxes and one roll.

astcell · 28 September 2006, 11:02 PM

My name is Robert, it has been about 5 weeks since my last purchase and the only thing keeping me from buying another Rolex now is the fact that my girlfriend wants an airplane first.

She has the perfect answer: We get both! See why we get along? :-)

28 September 2006, 11:31 PM

VCs are very nice indeed!

My name is John and it's been five months since my last watch purchase and eight days since my last strap purchase.

RogerF · 29 September 2006, 01:22 AM

I wish that VC was mine. The owner of the restaurant we were at also owns a watch store and brought that out for me to try on. I won't have money for that baby for a little while. :(

As for the IWC, that belongs to my friend Laurance Yap, its a GREAT watch. The bracelet is extremely comfortable and looks better in person than it does in pics.

mailman · 29 September 2006, 07:46 AM

Hi. My name is Paul and it's been five months since my last purchase. I'm still happy with it

wonghonchung · 29 September 2006, 07:51 AM

Get one, it's a great watch with a exquisite chrono movement. If you like the older one, that's even better, as pre-owned pieces aren't all that expensive, while the newer style pre-owned pieces go for almost $3,000-$4,000 more.

Roger, I had on that IWC last weekend, didn't think I would be able to walk out without buying it!! Of all the Pannies that I saw at the GTG, that IWC Chrono was really calling me, LOUD!!

BTW/ it has been a whopping six days since the last flip, LMAO!!

Well if it makes your decision easier, the owner of the IWC also owns 3 Panerais

Yeah, so what? He also gets to test drive cool cars for a living and then write about them in Watchtime.

Laurence and I seem to have alot of similar tastes in watches.
