Well, Another fantastic experience with Li and Lana from Jtime!

I wanted something a little different to add to my collection. I spent some time looking through forums and seeing what was out there, finally, I stumbled upon the IWC Top Gun Ceramic. Just loved the all-black look, the pop of the white and the red Top Gun writing on the dial!

I messaged Li and asked him what he thought about the watch, in terms of quality, movement, etc. Li has always been extremely honest with me and a couple of times he has suggested I go a different direction. He only had good things to say about this so I pulled the trigger.

This is the timeline from payment to Delivery:

· Payment made 5/13

· QC photos received 5/20

· Tracking number received 5/24

· Package received via DHL 6/1

· Package delivered 6/8

18 business days from the time I made the payment to receiving the package!

The watch came with an IWC travel case, the warranty card, and an additional leather strap. Everything was very well packaged.

The total price paid $503 USD

I used transferwise to pay Li, he gave me the UnionPay card number along with all his other info and it made paying him very easy. Took a matter of seconds and Li waited and let me know that he had received the monies!

This is the IWC Top Gun Ceramic by M+F. I’m very impressed with the quality of this build, feels very solid and premium. Haven’t tried the gen on so can’t compare the feel to the gen but feels great on the wrist, very comfortable.

The lume is pretty nice as well charges quite easily and is bright once charged.

This uses the A2892 so it is able to do the quick jump date, for those that aren’t sure what that is it means you can wind the hour hand anti-clockwise to the 9 then clockwise to the 12 and it will change the date, alternatively you can pull the crown to the date change position and turn the crown anti-clockwise to flip through the dates.

This is my second time buying watches form Li and Lana. The process has always been extremely easy, Li is always there to help and answer questions, and Lana is very quick to respond and send QC pictures. The watches have always been exceptional quality and the service mirrors this!

Hope you all enjoy the review, any questions don't hesitate to ask. I thought it would be nice to see something a little different.
