kvwatch 0 Posted January 22, 2015 Dear, I have been a long time IWC enthusiast, I own a couple genuine Movado and one Breitling. Lately I have been looking at the IWC Spitfire or the Chronograph model and they are STUNNINGGGGGGG!!!! I want them so bad, especially the brown leather with gold or polished steel case! I have been looking at a couple websites of trusted dealer but most newly arrived Spitfires are like $400-$500. Since I am a first time RWG buyer I don't want to invest that much into it.... My budget is probably $200-$300... Anybody with experience on here can pitch in which site has the best replica of these 2 models for the price? Currently looking at: http://www.greatasia3368.com/iwc/pilot/iwcswiss_032.htm http://www.trusty-watch.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_191&products_id=2094 This is what I want but too expensive ($440) Dream: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevil9 0 Posted January 23, 2015 3717-02 is Your answer although going with good strap might jump a bit above Your budget Thats beautiful - is it a chrome dial? I can only see white dials. Where did you get it? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDK 0 Posted January 23, 2015 The new 3878 is a lovely looking piece, but the new secs@6 module is proving to be a bit unreliable, i have had to freeze my seconds hand due to issues with the quality of the mod its poorly executed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted January 23, 2015 All good choices but if I ever bought another IWC again, it would be this one (err.. again ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSJ 0 Posted January 23, 2015 My 3777-01 rep is my favourite watch including my reps and gens. I prefer it over the Spitfire because it's a tad bigger. Dial is super easy to read, has great lume and the bracelet is the best of all my bracelets. The micro-adjust is a dream and when I wear a watch without it I really miss it. I would also go for the 3878 just for the fun of it but for me the secs@6 would have to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just dealers can't take nice pictures usually:) This is how this dial plays with different angles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graman 2 Posted January 24, 2015 I'd love the doppel... Grail watch, but I have a 3717 spit laureus and a regular 3717 flieger.. Both are awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSJ 0 Posted January 24, 2015 If I had a doppel it would need to be a gen. Couldn't live with the faux pusher, despite the fact that I'd hardly ever push it. Bit sad really isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brum123 0 Posted February 15, 2015 Hi - I love the IWC range and the spitfire selection is at the top for me. Have a look at my very short review in this link. The watch was sourced through Tim at Watchfinder - great service etc. There are obvious flaws compared to the gen but if you like the style, this should work at a very reasonable price - cheers http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=81743&hl=&fromsearch=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
