Ingy Monday

[learningtofly]

I've had an IWC before - a vintage Yacht Club, actually, but nothing like this beauty. I've fancied one of these for a long time, and having waited a while due to the logistics of delivery it certainly doesn't disappoint. Aside from the beautiful in-house movement (I'll get some photos of that up later) it's built like a tank. The dial's something to behold too, with a textured white finish setting off rose gold indices and hands that look wonderful when the light hits them.

It was this or an AP 15300 - bearing in mind that I didn't really have funds for the latter, I can't say that I'm even slightly regretting my decision.

I knew it wouldn't be long before you got pics of that one up, Tony!

Really nice. The quality of IWC kit is very hard to beat, and the dial on that one is fantastic.

You're funny, Dunc... I'm the master of low key, doom-laden watch shots, mate.

[Henrik Gelardi]

Very nice, Tony - you're one lucky chap...

The most beautifull inge imho....looking forward to the movement pictures!

[Routers]

Very nice - really classy with a super clear dial.

[learningtofly]

Thanks guys. It's certainly an imposing watch, but it's very beautiful!

Thats's very nice Tony.

I have been lusting after an AP15300 too lately but think I would happily settle for this instead!

Something about the rose gold indices and hands that just adds that little extra to it....

Nice one Tony! Those white dials are classy! 8)

But what happened to smaller watches? :P

[PhiloStan]

I know the 3227 has some weak lume on the indices and on the 12 and 6. It seems that the 3228 doesn't have any which I find even more appealing. The whole look for the 3228 makes it a dressier watch; specs online show that it's 2 mm smaller and 1mm less thick than the 3227. Beautiful watch!

I got a 38mm today too ;)

[Marios]

That's a beauty Tony, congrats!

[thattallchap]

Yeah, that's nice Tony. Let me know when it's time's up :wink:

[jonny]

very nice.How does it wear? what size is it?

[learningtofly]

It's actually only 40mm, although it wears a little larger due to the shape of the case/lugs and the integrated bracelet. It's very comfortable, though, and although I haven't checked the weight it's not particularly heavy.

A beautiful watch, for me everything about it is right. I like white dialled watches at the best of times but the rose gold indices are just lovely :drunken:

Beautiful Ingy Tony, IWC certainly make superb watches.

[Steve1970]

gorgeous watch, congrats!

You are clearly a man of impeccable taste :wink:

You are clearly a man of impeccable taste :wink:

I'd like to say the same, but is that a pebble-dashed jumper you're wearing? :shock:

Not quite, but I do find pebble-dashing is better on the outside than in :)

[Heikki]

Very nice pics. That's probably the best looking Inge ever.

I like it apart from the little holes in the bezel which i cannot help but think will attract dirt. Great photos.
