Del 4,463 Posted August 14, 2012 I just received this IWC Top Gun v1 today from a member on RWI and I'm delighted with it. What a gorgeous watch! I'd been promising myself a Top Gun for months and months but never got around to actually ordering one (and I don't know why!) so when I saw this for sale on RWI I decided to go for it. What makes this one a little more special is that it has been given the Fine DD AR treatment so the crystal "disappears" at certain angles - awesome! In addition, the Top Gun logo on the case has been painted grey - a bit more like the gen. This is also the superlumed version - another big plus! The watch is in excellent condition and all functions work perfectly - I'm looking forward to wearing it tomorrow. And so to some pics I snapped tonight - hope you enjoy.

jacobarch 0 Posted August 15, 2012 I really really don't like your Del. I'm ordering the V3 from Toro we'll have to compare pictures, I want to see the differences. Great looking watch btw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davylloyd 0 Posted August 15, 2012 Great looking watch! My son has the gen, they are just gorgeous in the flesh. I'm not envious at all - my skin is just naturally slightly green. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uhrzeit 0 Posted August 15, 2012 Del, Del, Del, hat up for this purchase. Indeed a gorgeous watch! I own this IWC Top Gun as well. Don´t blame me, as I don´t know if it´s V1 or whatsoever. The worst thing happened to me was: - if you pull out the crwon to its second position (for manual day/date change) the stem turns lost motion, so no changes in date and day anymore. A pitty. Anyways, I´m not here to place complaints about my watch... Finally I may say: congrats to your little "black" girl at your wrist. Wear it well...
