I have been wearing my M+F quite a few times since I received. It's a very nice watch despite its flaws, that I really like. However, the quick change clasp on one of the straps has become quite loose, and I have already lost the watch twice while getting out of a jacket, which is pretty annoying.

Was waiting on this or the Petronas. But decided just to get the standard Black Mark XX from V7F.
Classic never dies.
V7F's titanium case just looks off. Plus, black matte dial will be more versatile than the sunburst grey for me

I have replaced the broken factory strap with a third party sailcloth strap, which is also much more comfortable than the factory strap that was quite stiff.
I really enjoy wearing this watch. It sits comfortable on the wrist, is super light (I measured 52 grams including the new strap, which has a standard quick release instead of the proprietary IWC quick change system), and looks great.

It is a watch that I like so much, that I would buy it in gen if it was available. On the other hand - other than the movement with the better power reserve, I don't think that the gen would actually be able to provide any significant benefit. M+F didn't get all the details right, but overall it is a great package.

M+ just released the Petronas. The case actually looks closer to the Patrouille imo than what they currently offer.
