It looks great, no doubt. I am obsessed by ss bracelet otherwise it would be on the top of my "to buy" list
Are you gonna "update" the TG with gen parts? :D

Thank you gregs!

It's a BP 500901 from ZF, not perfect, but ZF did a very good job with this watch. I'm very happy!

What do you miss in this watch? The main problem was the wrong colour red in the power reserve? Right?

Thank you pippo! Oh yes I like them as well, looks fantastic and feels good on the skin... the IWC bracelet lock system is just awsome!

Besides the Mark 17, the TG is one of those watches who really perfectly fits my wrist and feels like a charm.

My journey in search of gen parts ended last week, update includes:
- complete gen handset
- gen dial
- gen crown
- gen crystal
- gen day/date disc
- gen IWC 79320 movement

A gen strap has to wait til next year, and maybe the pushers... :happy:

Holy s...!! :D
It's gonna be a super franken TG, not cheap but a keeper for sure for someone who's into pilot watches :)

I cannot wait to see the final result. ;)

Exactly! The colour of the PR as well as the lume on the markers. Additionally i had some quality issues with the dial (dirt, dust and a hair :shok:) who were not visible in the QC pics. I had to open the watch and clean the dial by myself, with good result. Now I am pretty happy. But nothing really is a no-go, it's an excellent replica! Thermalboyz wrote a very good comparison GEN vs. REP of the 5009, if not already seen.
