Rolex vs ALI

A few weeks back I was able to purchase my first Rolex pictured below


HOWEVER, I had the rare opportunity to pick up my Holy Grail at the cost of my Milgauss plus cash for the following: IWC Big Pilot Muhammad Ali LE



I no longer have a Rolex in my collection, BUT am very happy with the replacement

Interesting choice that IWC...it does look good with the black/red combo.

If it’s your grail then go for it.

Trading in a Rolex for a non-Rolex?? Traitor!! Hahaha! Just kidding!

Seriously though....Congrats on your Grail purchase. I've never really looked much at IWC, but that's a sharp looking watch! Love the dial and the oversized crown. Enjoy!

Would never have considered it, but the IWC is special, my dad had a BP and was in the British Airforce and Ali was my fathers favourite fighter. I lost him a few years back and well you can guess the rest.
