IWC 2013 Ingenieur family

I like a few of the new ones but 3264 stand out, i also kind of like the new carbon fiber 3224.

I can't wait to see the 3239 in person. Always having loved the 3227, I never bought one as it always seemed unwieldy on my wrist. I think the 40mm sizing will be perfect, is interested in how the 10mm would wear and I guess it will feel like an AP jumbo. I would have guessed that 12mm would have been the outcome. I can't wait to see the dial colors in person as well as I am not sure which I would prefer.

I love the (ref 3785) Silberpfeil dial and look forward to seeing that one. They show the brown dial on the banner, but check out the silver dial.

I also like the AMG black ceramic. (ref 3225) I think the lines of the Ingy work well with the ceramic material and look.

Every time I look at it, I find the dual time (ref 3264) more appealing, though will reserve judgement after seeing it in person.

Those are phenomenal Steve ! :grin: ..Love the stand out design with
all of them. Can only imagine how cool it would be to have one of
them on the wrist with the design of the case, but also to then look
down, and see those beautiful dials. Thank you for the info on these !

I had a chance to fondle and try on most of the new lineup at SIHH this week. Here are some wrist shots...
40mm Auto:

Dual Time:

Perp Calendar Digital Date

Chrono Racer

And this one :o :

Frankly, I liked the whole new collection, other than the carbon fiber. The plain old 40mm Auto is probably the one I'd go for, or the Doppelchrono Ti, which we saw released last year. Nice stuff. Oh, and then there was this in their booth, Juan Manuel Fangio's 1955 Mille Miglia Mercedes SLR, which I went back to see about ten times.

I liked the addition of the crown guards when I first saw them.

I like them less and less every time I see the watches.

Holy crap.

The watches are fine, the first one is the best.

But the SLR. :jerk: WOW!

I don't really like a single one on that page :shrug:
3225 is the one I could wear maybe?

I want the perpetual calendar digital date.

BTW, I hereby declare myself first in line when Jason needs an assistant. You know, to try on watches, so he can take really professional pictures of them.
No thanks, I'm trying to cut down

Which dial color / indice combo did you like the best on the 3239?

The MB silver streak is amazing.

I love that one too. But at $50k, as nice as it is, I'm not a buyer. Just too many Milles, Mosers, Pateks, FPJs, and APs in that range to compete.

And I volunteer to be Jason's small wrist model :).

$50k? Great Odin's Ravens! Yeah, at that price it wouldn't even be on my radar given the other options out there.

Peculiar that the watch insider states in a blog post and in the comments that it has a Selitta movement.

I can't make up my mind so will need to see one in person... I hope the $7900 is a misprint...
