New IWC Mark 17 Le Petit Prince

[jamztio]

Hey guys , just got some pics of the Petit Prince Mk. 17 from a dealer here. This is only a prototype though and it's made by the MK maker .
What do you think?

Here's the gen:

Fine.
Looks good on the first view but the blue colour of the dial seems to be a little bit darker than on the rep.

 

[mclarendude]

Nice.

 

[shall]

I like it!

What is the size of the case? it's 43 like chrono or 46 like big pilot.

EDIT:41mm, pity too small for me.

EDIT2. I see again purpleish AR coating, like they couldn't simple fix it.

Looks a bit purple and the date window a very small tick too close to center. But I think this is nitpicking - nobody will recognize IRL.

So: this watch looks great! Will they release this watch? Are they also planning a BigPilot PP?

A7750 movement.

Cool and nice...I think the date font and crown are a bit bigger compare with gen. The word 'IWC' seems smaller than gen..
Still looking forward for the actual product. If they can make it as 41mm will be great.

It has the identical purplish hue with the chrono version. Still beautiful though...

 

[frozenb]

nice, this made me just hold my hand on order the chorno version. this one look nice....OMG....what should I do...

 

[kurwy]

Nice find, I was waiting for this for a long while

Do you mind sharing who the dealer was?

 

[peterpl]

Will look better on bracelet.

The IWC seems a bit far off the 11 marker the I should be on line with the 11 marker- on the rep it isn't

Yeah, they could have repped the layout a little better.
They spoiled us with the 3777, way more accurate to be honest.

hmm..i start to confuse, isn't the gen is 41mm? which is the correct size?

I am sure the diameter is 41mm as per gen specs.

Been told that the final product will have correct dial fonts/markers position as well as "midnight blue" dial. The caseback engraving will also be updated. Also the movement is an A2892 not A7750. lol
Let's see if they're really gonna update those.

It's already up on Intime and Chazingtime.
