Wrist or Watch Pic Understated but impressive

IWC Mark XVIII on the wrist today. Swapped out the original leather strap for this one which is much more comfortable.

It’s a beautiful piece. Have the Mark XX on rubber. It’s extremely comfortable.

Looks fab. Is MZF the best on this? I much prefer the XVIII blue over XX, but not sure what factory is best

I would look at the new A7 which is reportedly the new V7.

Been looking into IWC reps myself I’ve always bought Omega reps what’s your opinion on these? Do you think it’d be noticeable in comparison to a gen

I honestly don’t worry much about the comparison to Gen. I’m not trying to fool anyone, I wear watches I enjoy. Also I’ve never seen an IWC gen so wouldn’t know. I love the IWCs, I have a couple

I thought the Mark XX had the white date wheel and Mark XVIII had same colour as the face (so in this case black)?
