I know what a watch looks like on my wrist, i meant noticable for me when looking at it, cause from the comparing pictures so far, "IWC Schaffhausen" doesn't look very clean compared to genIt will be barely noticeable. This is what a watch looks like on your wrist.

Don't think anything can be determined from these pictures until we get real life, real in hand photos, in sunlight, by people who actually have the watch, rather than like 3 QC images from Hont who isn't exactly the best at QC
I bought a Breitling rep that's very nice, other than the fact the dial says, "Reitling."
It's a huge flaw in an otherwise decent rep. I actually intend to pad print a "B" on the dial one of these days.

That’s really one of the most promising IWC since a few years. Looking forward to the first review…
Was out with friends yesterday, there was an overseas, an explorer 1 and a 15202 and it made me think the Ingenieur is a really nice design that puts together some of the features I like of those watches. I will have to have one at some point.
Sharing my QC pics that came in this morning (Hont). Looks great! Hell yeah, very excited for this rep.

It looks good, what's the price?Sharing my QC pics that came in this morning (Hont). Looks great! Hell yeah, very excited for this rep.
The biggest flaw I see with the rep from the pics is the location of the pad printed "SWISS", appears to be shifted right (now seeing across multiple examples. But small issue in the scheme of things!
$398 USD
Curious thing is … i have looked at a lot of gen pics and even there the „swiss“ is near by the 6o‘clock marker than „made“ on the other side
The print is clearly offset to the right on all the watches I've seen so far, but on yours the 6 marker is literally on top of half the second "S". It might annoy you after a while. Just ask for a replacement.
Yeah, I think there's either a bit of angle or fisheye effect making it seem that way in the two photos, but still very close and will just cross fingers some for when i see in person.
But I'm fine with it either way, personally I buy reps more as a trial before I buy the gens, just to make sure I love them enough to drop the full amount.
Few minor mistakes v7 needs to fix before I pull the trigger. The pattern error on the logo is actually a bit annoying now that I see it
