Martijn0007 3 Posted March 5, 2015 Not sure about the rep, but the gen is a piece of art. The dial is just beautifull! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostripper 0 Posted March 5, 2015 Strange Review Strange isn't it... I was looking more for a reference that a review... But I guess that the mods, will nicely move my post to the appropriate section of the forum, granted that, it was wrintten in the wrong place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kennycoder 97 Posted March 5, 2015 Not sure about that white day/date... looks kinda weird. Maybe just not the best render. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSJ 0 Posted March 5, 2015 It's a pretty watch but I prefer the standard 3777-01 with the black datewheel. Also the standard bracelet is fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RichardMiami 4 Posted March 6, 2015 I agree.. more of a reference than a review. Moved to General Reference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC1221 44 Posted March 6, 2015 did they ever rep the non-chrono version? that would have to go on my must have list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kemist 0 Posted March 6, 2015 did they ever rep the non-chrono version? that would have to go on my must have list. +1, should be on a must-have list of anyone who loves pilot watches I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted March 6, 2015 I think the rep was just released in the last few days....so doubt you'll find anyone that has it already. In general, the IWC Pilot series are pretty solid reps, except for the spitfire's with the Sec@6 which have mov't issues (like all other sec@6). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adamsmith 0 Posted March 9, 2015 yes this watch does have a rep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
higginsd 0 Posted March 9, 2015 A Korean site, but some good pictures of the new rep: Link I ordered the rep, will post some pics after receiving it. @BC1221: I think YES, they also rep'ed the Mark-XVII of the PetitePrince (I saw a video some weeks ago) and hopefully also the BigPilot-PP. But these reps aren't available at the moment. They're in the release pipeline I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This looks like a way to have a Spitfire look in a bigger watch. I may not be able to resist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
usudno 0 Posted March 9, 2015 This and the spitfire as well as the Portuguese are my favorites as a dress watch. To bad they all have seconds at 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

higginsd 0 Posted March 10, 2015 @JSJ: yes, correct, the gen has lumed subdial hands. I saw pics in IWC forum showing this. And this is in fact a 3777 case set. Why should they build a new case set for the 3777-06?!? They only changed dial, hands, date wheels and case back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll buy one of these and fit a rep bracelet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DD_Ash 0 Posted March 11, 2015 Beautiful watch, chuck it on a lighter brown custom strap (maybe distressed or suede?) to really pick up that blue and its a winner for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostripper 0 Posted March 11, 2015 Beautiful watch, chuck it on a lighter brown custom strap (maybe distressed or suede?) to really pick up that blue and its a winner for me Totally agree on this one. I already order an original IWC Tan Pilot Strap! I can wait to get mine it should be here anytime soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
higginsd 0 Posted March 11, 2015 The IWC gen strap for the 3777-PetitePrince is a very good choice. But I heared the rep strap also has a very good quality. A gen IWC brown gator for PilotChrono would be an alternative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
