[AWARDED] IWC 5001 - GEN, ZF, YL Comparison

The v3 is iw5007 with its movement and curved strap right? Could the strap from iw5001 be used with iw5007? I have a gen strap of iw5001 but I feel that the iw5007 is more beautiful (newer) movement.

Excuse my ignorance, so does this also mean an Orloff strap would struggle to fit to the 5007?

[MENTION=120633]lakey[/MENTION] orloff should fit as it is 22mm but it is straight spring bar.

Don't forget the lug holes on the 5007 are closer to the watch case than they are on the 5001, so I am afraid it will not fit properly.

I just received my white blue 5007 from Hont today.

I was checking out this thread since the watch looked different from the ZF V2.

I guess I lucked out and got the ZF V3 blue dial as it looks like the chazingtime picks with the curved spring bars and the Probus IWC Scafusia clasp.

+1 Will buy IWC5007 rep because of your review! contacting one of the TD now.

Which one will you guys get? And why? As a non-expert, im thinking of YL v6 simply because there are more green less reds than ZF v3?

 

[jburden]

Impressive comparison, thanks very much!!

Long time lurker and first time poster here! Thanks for this thread, it was the sole reason I purchased my 1st rep from one of our TD's.

I just received my ZF 5007 a few days ago and I noticed they made some cosmetic updates to the movement that weren't pictured here. Hope this helps anyone else looking for one.

WOW!! nice watch! really looks like gen.. Do they really update the silver plate? or is it just in your watch/batch?

Em..... looks like ZF had change the gold to silver plate. More details pics would be good from different angle to see what been changed.

Nice combo, always like the ardoise version with black / brown strap.
