It has the Asian7750 in it. Speaking of that, The start/Stop button for the chrono seem kinda hard (hard to depress), is that normal ?

Hi there. From the caseback serial number - I think this is a V1.... As for the chrono buttons, I've got a V2 A7750, and yes, it's kinda hard to press.

Nice, that's one of the truly well replicated IWCs. how much did it cost? Did the box & papers come priced together?

Great looking watch!

I would send it out for a service to a trusted watchsmith (learned this lesson the hard way, but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure).

Thanks for the compliments.

Chisin : Thanks for pointing that out. I paid more for the V2 but seems to me its a V1 now. Will contact PTW for clarification.

Automatics : Box and papers costs me another $70. Watch was $338.

Qinetiqs : PTW = PureTimeWatch

:popcorn:

No problem. My understanding is that there are a few V2 serial number combos, but they always end with an "8" - probably a Chinese thing. I may be completely wrong about the serial, but this is based on what I understand.

I guess a good way to check would be to remove the caseback and see if the number on the inside of the caseback matches the number outside - if not, it's a V2. If it matches, it's a V1. Hope you get this sorted out, though. ;)

Thanks for the compliments.

This is a V2 for sure but the crown looks like a V1 crown. I'm quite confused

QinetiQ, could you kindly justify why you say so ? i am also quite confused myself. I was led to believe that a V2 crown would look more "titanium'ish"

If I were you Randy I wouldn't beat myself up over minor details.

That's a damn fine watch you have there. Wear it well and just enjoy it.

Really good pictures !

I think it's a V1, I got a V2 on my own and by seeing this pictures the crown is much better on the V1.
