SmoothyWoothy 0 Posted January 21, 2013 No offence but that looks like a rep to me. The gens I've seen has a black date wheel. For almost 20 minutes I had a Gen IWC You're right... It was really cheap actually... But it still looks good I think... It does have a GEN strap however... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iceman767 0 Posted January 21, 2013 it looks like a rep from a mile off. is that a synthetic glass or a sapphire crystal? Any AR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmoothyWoothy 0 Posted January 21, 2013 it looks like a rep from a mile off. is that a synthetic glass or a sapphire crystal? Any AR? I really have no idea... I always liked the vintage aquatimer, and by coincidence I found a really cheap GEN strap for it... Off course there are no good reps of this particular IWC, so settled for what I could find What are the biggest tells you would say? Maybe it could be the beginning of a "project". Almost everything can be modded about this watch, so... What do you think? Worth it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks great I've been wanting one for a long time Me too This is as close as I'll come for now... It needs a black DW, Better AR, re-lume, brushing of the case... And some other stuff I forgot Also the caseback says: Ingenieur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
