Thoughts on IWC 322702 AMG

Wanna hear your thoughts on this particular model... Or would you rather opt for a exp2 42mm instead? TIA

I had the SS 3227-01 but basically the same watch. The movement is exceptional and the bracelet is excellent (you may need a half link). I found legibility to be top notch. The added bonus of Ti makes the 3227-02 an excellent sports watch. IWC does Ti very very well. The only two dislikes for me are the finish on the watch and the AMG caseback.

I would have owned one if it wasn't for the cut off #10 which drives me nuts. Great everyday watch though!

The Exp42 has much more wrist presence, which is not necessarily a good thing in my book.

Personally, I'd get the Exp2 over the 3227-02.

Yeah, I never understood that... they should have just used the 3227-01 dial.
