tesmith2112 0 Posted September 19, 2014 Some of you may have seen, I recently bought the watch below (Big Pilot 48MM Ceramic). Now I have the IWC Ceramic bug. As with many of us, I'm obsessing and trying to figure out my next purchase. I know I want a Top Gun Dopple / 379x Full Ceramic watch. Looks like there are V1, V2's, 44MM, 46MM, etc., etc. Frankly I'm struggling to find a source that nets out the differences of each model. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. Below you'll find links to PureTime and Perfect Clones, which both have numerous models with no clear description of what distinguishes one from the next. I have questions like, what is different between V1 and V2, etc., etc. http://pure-time.com/category/pilot-chrono/all/ http://www.pf-818.com/pliot-series-c-106_214.html I'm asking, can someone give me quick high-level run down on which model is the best overall and what the fundamental differences are between iterations. Or better yet, if this information is already published and available, point me there, because I'm struggling to find it, and it's not from a lack of looking. Thank you!

nunu78 1,743 Posted September 20, 2014 Dont know about the size difference but the difference b/w v1,v2 and v3 was lume ,side engraving and date font. As far as i remember coz i used to have top gun v2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well if it helps the 46mm and the 44's main difference is the double chrono on the 46mm (non-working on rep) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tesmith2112 0 Posted September 20, 2014 I think I'm going to wait until a decent 3880 comes out. These look cleaner than the 379X series that's out now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UmpaHimself 223 Posted September 20, 2014 I really don't know much about IWCs either but I am a fan. Is the official IWC site no help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
