And it's not a Mark XVIII, it's a Spitfire

Can't wait for the full line up of Spitfire to be released! Hopefully, ZF will do them well

And it's not a Mark XVIII, it's a Spitfire

There are 3 different IWC Spitfire's. This one is just the mark18 with a different dial and case colour. So how should we call it then?

XF also made it, hope it will be good...

Have more trust in XF products.

I think this one should be 39mm, a nice one for smaller wrist.

IWC had some very interesting new release at Bazel.

XF also made it, hope it will be good...

Any idea about the timing of the release?

 

[pretender]

hopefully they do the new top gun line - especially the non chrono

I'm really happy with my XF Bronze Tudor, hopefully this Spitfire will be coming with an A2892.

Also here's Hodinkee's introductory video on the new Spitfire watches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxKAeQHdEmM

The new line of chrono use a new inhouse mouvement. Subdials position will be a pain to replicate.

in for this. I had the old Ml XVIII LPP and loved it...it just was too close to a gen Hamilton I always wore. In for the bronze though (loved my now-sold XF BBB and still have the gen NATO strap for it)
