Got My New IWC Ingenieur Mission Earth Yesterday!!!

Some preliminary pics. I will post high end shots tomorrow or Friday.

I also ordered the rubber strap and I already switched the bracelet for the strap as we speak. Amazing piece and it truly dwarfs the discontinued Ingenieur that I also own. I will post comparison pics as well.

Enjoy!!!

And it's super heavy and sturdy. Much better than the previous Ingenieur. Side by side there's a hugh difference. This one has been supersized very nicely!!!

Suspect it was appended at the dealer and not from the owner. That's the way I viewed it anyway.

As watch connoisseurs we all are familiar with prices anyway.

It was not intentional, as the AD had left that post it on the box and didn't want to rip it off.
