Anyone own an IWC yacht club?

Care to share you views on this watch?

I got one. It's a very nice watch. Wears big and sporty. In-house movement 89361 from IWC. Best to pair it with a leather strap instead of the rubber strap.

I have the same piece

I have the same piece - I love it. 10/10. Does wear big, but if you are a bigger guy (i'm 6'4) it fits great. Its clean,elegant, & classic. Pears well with suit or jeans. Highly recommended

i really like it, but on the rubber strap. IMO that makes the watch, if i was going with leather i would get one of their other watches... AC, auto, or the regular chrono.

Its a great IWC - one of my favourites they make actually ! Prefer it to the Portuguese Chrono.
