Incoming IWC

Just delivered this morning. I’ve always wanted a pilot perp. I’m still on the hunt for the steel NA boutique edition, but I pulled the trigger on this piece to hold me over.

Thanks guys. And I agree, the color combo is different. Not my favorite, but I got a great deal and I plan to flip it as soon as I find an IW502618 for a good price.

Wish I could have captured my slippahs (flip flops). LOL. No growing necessary. I really have my heart set on the other reference. :)

Agree there are better versions of this, but it’s a great watch nevertheless.

You're looking for the orange bpp? C&C was trying to sell one for awhile, dropped price last month to 18 something. It's gone now though.

Cool watch in any case! I have the Miami one, yellow on black, love it.

Oh man. If you happen upon another one, please let me know. I would have snatched that one in a heartbeat.

Blast from the past. I remember a long time ago on another forum a guy had a collection of these, pretty much each variation from what I could tell.

Love the BP personally. Congrats on this one, it'll be a fun one for a while as you continue the search for the steel.
