That looks sharp.

The other new Pilot offerings are great as well.

Nice--also saw 3 of the new AP's as I am sure many of you did--love the new tourbillon!! Too bad it will cost an arm and a leg and I only have one of each left from the previous purchases!!

Judging by the past and the fact that this one isn't a LE ... could be really really soon. I'm going to call my favorite AD today and have them hold one for me.

Cool, please PM me and let me know what they say. Would be curious if the same holds true on the Spitfire?

I'm not a big fan of the exposed date wheel, but I'm a big IWC fan!
Only one in the stable now though. Maybe I'll have to do something about that.

I fell in love with the Spitfire Chrono and was about to order it when I came across the Daytona and went with that instead. Something inside says I should still go for the IWC though.
