Here are some pics of the IWC Le Petit Prince I recently bought.

It's been about 6 years since I purchased my last Rep, so I had been out of the game for a bit.

I am really pleased with this watch, and the bracelet is especially nice.

By coincidence, the day after I purchased the watch I was walking around my local Costco and saw a copy of the book the watch's name is based on. So of course I had to buy the book!

Nice one
So how did you manage to not buy anything for 6 years? Some group like AA?
Would be good to share with us addicts..

the only way for me for not buying single watch in 6 years is to be in prison....or in a coma....

The dial color changes so much in the light. Is the GEN the same? Which factory has the better dial?

This is so true, every light & angle gives a different effect, mine is from the ZF factory, looked at the Gen in AD and was very very impressed how close the sunburst effect was.

That is awesome, looks new. Zero wear time, lol
Too bad, the dial is not fully lumed. I wonder if anyone got it relumed.

Agree on the colour changing. I haven't managed to get a photo that shows how it look to me in good sunlight, the way it lightens looks great imho. Beautiful watch.

Mine is nearly a year old now, had no issues, keeps great time, I believe the movement is an A7750
