the intermediates!

hello guys/ladies

the watches that are water-resistant between 100 to 200, I call then 'the intermediates'...and the best part is, I somehow LOVE ALL of them..now I dont know why, but may be because of the intermediate requirements of such a watch, they can be dressy as well as sporty and hence eveolve with similar characteristics and high beauty...following are some of my favourite intermediates...plz everyone share more intermediates that I may have forgotten

cheers
enjoy

there are actually two IWCs..the ingenieur and the aquatimer...both 120m and both from their vintage collection...the platinum versions of all are limited to 500 pieces and they have a silvered face while the steel versions are unlimited and have black dials...lovely return to the roots, right?

hey and you know the amazing thing: the first 140 watches from the platinum limited edition of every memebr of the collection were sold only as part of a complete set of the whole vintage collection (totalling six) bearing the same number in special delivery packaging...sorry thats a complex sentence...I mean the first 140 serial number buyers bought a set of six models, each bearing the same serial number, comprising the whole vintage collection...how cool is that?

Yeah, i knew about the complete sets, those are quite something. I really wish they would produce that Aquatimer as a regular production watch; I think it is so much nicer than the current model, clean and classic looking.
