I tried this exact model on recently (I’m a sucker for 36s) and it was quite beautiful. Personally, I might do an alternate strap, but that doesn’t change one iota how gorgeous a watch it is!

Thanks all. I do like the strap, but have also been looking at Strap Tailor site for some ideas on a second option.

The dial really catches the sun nicely & the hands just pop when you look down at your wrist.

Nice when your watch makes you smile on a daily basis….really no better purpose for a watch!

I have always liked these G10 pattern IWC watches the only exception was the Mark XVII which I thought was hideous and I felt at that point the model went right off the rails! Fortunately IWC have returned to the classic dial design.
