bobken9 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Received this IWC pilot off priceangels and I don't think it's great tbh. The strap is a bit of a dud and face looks cheap. I only bought it for laughs because it cost around 40 euro and I was buying other goods on the site so threw it in. I'm interested to hear what ye guys make of it from the not so good pics. Can it be salvaged? Worth buying a strap and giving it the odd wear or bin it? Also any ideas of the model and type of movement? Cheers lads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luthier 1 Posted October 5, 2012 You'd better donate your 40 to RWG, than waste on this piece of crap. You'd earn more respect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nisv 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Does it work? Why not try it on for size, maybe it'll grow on you, then you can get another strap for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobken9 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Yeah it fits... Ah it's a cheap toy is all... 40 euros worth it for the entertainment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nisv 0 Posted October 5, 2012 If nothing else you could always give it away as a birthday present if there's no love. Then it wouldn't be a total waste of cash, and jokes would be on the new lucky owner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

<RJ> 0 Posted October 5, 2012 You have kids that might like it? Or maybe you can do one of those "kill the rep" vids but with the theme "kill the PA reps", That would give you more respect amongst the more hardcore regs here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crusader 0 Posted October 5, 2012 You really can't expect perfection for 40 €, but this one looks pretty good. The plastic movement holder spoils the look when you open the caseback, but the watch overall looks good. Get a new strap for it and don't open the caseback in public and you will be able to fool 99 % of the people, those who care of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2point 21 Posted October 5, 2012 Would love to see the reaction if you posted those pics, minus the movement pic, and put it in the WI or Torobravo(disclaimer-other tds are available :-) ). Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobken9 0 Posted October 5, 2012 It's going to someone who will appreciate it and won't care for the movement so everyone happy then! Might buy a good rep from TD then to reclaim some respect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 994 Posted October 6, 2012 Lume shot :rofl: I'm surprised it cost that much on PA TBH, you can do better than that there. Having said that I've seen a hell of a lot worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
