IWC Schaffhausen

WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Mark XII was born out of the popularity of the Mark XI - a watch that was offered to the military from 1948-1980s. The Mark XII is a very purposeful watch with a simple utilitarian dial and modest case (36mm). Powered by the IWC Cal 884, which is really a JLC 889/2 in disguise, you're getting a world-class movement from one of the top movement makers. A soft iron case defends against magnetism. This is a great tool watch that doesn't scream for attention and is a great affordable alternative to the Rolex 14270.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is in overall great condition for its age. Dial is still deep black, with some aging on the tritium indices (3 and 6 positions) which have turned a nice yellow shade over time. Case is in great condition with most of the wear on the backside, around 85%. Strap is in great condition around 65%. Comes with IWC Inner Box, IWC Outer Box, service manual,  original strap, original tang buckle original tag and original purchase receipt.

WHY THIS WATCH

The first IWC Pilots Chronograph was the Ref 3740 which was a quartz operated watch. Next came the 3706, which was a full automatic based on the Valjoux movement. At 39mm its perfect for those of us with smaller wrists. I had the pleasure of inspecting the Valjoux movement on this watch first-hand and i'll tell you, there's been significant changes made in terms of polish and decoration. The movement in this particular watch is copper-plated, the screws are blued and there's perilage and other beautiful finishes throughout. The feel from the chrono pushers is a true delight, it takes a little less effort to active the pushers then it does on the later versions of the pilot chronograph.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Valjoux movement is running strong and keeping good time. All the functions, including chronograph and day-date are working as they should. The original strap is included in this watch, along with an aftermarket strap from Worn&Wound. The IWC strap is well worn. The aftermarket strap has only been worn a few times. IWC OEM tang buckle included. No box or papers with this one.

WHY THIS WATCH

Despite it's 44mm case this watch actually wears very well due to its 11mm thin profile. The dial is my favorite aspect of this watch; Those in-laid gold numerals look very elegant. It's also worth mentioning that the legibility on this watch is fantastic. If you're like me and like to read your time at a glance, this is your watch as it's all dial and very easy to read. Manual winding FA Jones movement is very reliable and looks superb from the sapphire case back. This watch was released only for one year and was replaced the next year with an identical design except without the grey subdial.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Case is around 95% with only small scratches that are hard to capture in photos. No deep gashes or dents. Leather strap is around 70% with plenty of life left. Comes with IWC box, no papers. Note that the IWC box has scratches throughout.

WHY THIS WATCH

IWC has a long history of making fantastic Pilot's watches, and it's probably what they are best known for. The 3706 was introduced in 1994 and ran through 2005. My favorite thing about this watch is hands down the bracelet. This watch IS the bracelet. The rice beads of stainless steel make the watch wear very ergonomically despite it's 14.6mm thickness. This particular version has the German-Day wheel.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

The watch comes complete with box and papers, including warranty card (dated year 2000). Includes the 2 pin pusher tools for adjusting the bracelet. Bracelet comes with all links. Valjoux 7750 running strong, with all sub-registers resetting to zero. Case is in excellent condition around 85%. We have not polished the case as most owners prefer this watch unpolished.

WHY THIS WATCH

This 45mm watch is a real miracle worker on the wrist. Because of a combination of factors, including the thin case (13mm), and tapering lugs, this is a watch that can fit comfortably on any wrist. The real stars of this show are the dial and strap. Mirror polished gold hands give a gorgeous warm glow and make the watch very legible. The strap is the result of IWC's partnership with Santoni, the shoemaker. Beautiful brown strap with the trademark Santoni orange on the underside. The IWC 59210 movement keeps ticking away for 8 days, so you'll only have to wind this once a week.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

WHY THIS WATCH

This Aquatimer has everything you'd expect from IWC, with a few notable stand-outs. The bezel is sapphire, and has lume applied to the 20-55 markers.

WHY THIS WATCH

At 43mm wide and 15mm thick, this IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph wears large, but very comfortably. It is no doubt a very masculine watch but is comfortable even on smaller wrists. My favorite aspect of this watch is the dial design. The thin bezel, textures on the dial and the white hands make time on this watch is instantly discernable. This is important if you’re a pilot and actually using this watch for it’s intended purpose. There’s something iconic about the dial, it almost seems like this is THE pilots watch dial. Chunky screw down crown and pushers with great feel. Tried and true IWC modified Valjoux inside, will be a reliable timekeeper for years to come. This watch has a soft iron core for protection against magnetic fields. Beautiful IWC black calfskin leather strap adds a pop of elegance. IWC has been making pilot’s watches for a while now.
