Casawelli1 0 Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Hi all, my new toy arrived this morning. Ultra smooth communication with Miffy/Chris from TSWATCH, with impressive fast delivery (transshipping via UK to Germany from China) within 10 days after my QC acceptance. It arrived like this: Well protected as you see... To my great surprise, TSW included a small watchbox with a zipper and a cleaning pad as little extras ! That's customer service, I LIKE! But enough box and packing, lets move on to the watch: I wanted to have a watch with a white dial this time, as a classic dress watch. And after the great reviews here about the new ZF IWC's, I picked the 5007 one with the blue hands on a dark blue strap. The power reserve was fully loaded quite fast within maybe twenty turns and I am curious to see, how many days it will keep on going now. The strap is as usual "just ok", a little short for my large wrist, but I will change to another one very soon anyway to give that classical timepiece a quality strap what it deserves, as the overall quality perception is incredibly good. The watch ticks with very little noise, the AR will do it for my eyes, so I am already in love with that watch and it will get a lost of wristtime from now on.

MAJ75 959 Posted February 24, 2017 Nice to see the enthusiasm in posts like these. I haven't used this TD but it looks like they offer good service. The IWC is a great choice & will lift to the next level with a quality strap. Enjoy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The IWC is a great choice & will lift to the next level with a quality strap. Enjoy it. Thanks and I will (enjoy). It's my 3rd order with them and my brother in law used them several times as well. Not a single issue so far. Reason to pick them was very clear guidance in triangle shipping via UK to avoid the f.XXX ...german customs and I got tracking numbers for both lags and could follow it all the time.Had 8 Emails along the order, as they kept me informed on any progress. Prices and watches are the same everywhere anyway and I got a 10% discount on the full price with WU transfer. What else can you expect? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casawelli1 0 Posted February 24, 2017 You crazy watchnerds! Why do to bring my attention on it? Indeed, if I would be hyper critical, you might be right, but...I am not :death star: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know sometimes the level of macro nit-picking is horrendous, don't worry I have watches with far more telling flaws than that! Doesn't bother me either, if anyone were to approach my wrist with a magnifying glass, compass or ruler I would put my foot straight up em'! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casawelli1 0 Posted February 24, 2017 I'm thinking I'm going to get the grey dial. Not sure yet, might have to get a RG Big Pilot first Was considering the grey one as well as it looks very good with a dark brown strap, but I wanted to stick on my plan to get a white dial watch first as I have plenty of white and blueish shirts for my job, so that matches very nicely.

TheTinMan 13 Posted March 1, 2017 Man, those new IWCs are nice. Enjoy. On another note, I use that humping stormtrooper as my avatar on another forum (it was my original one here too) and every time I see one of your posts now, I keep thinking it was something I posted. It's confusing for a second before I realise it's not me anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
