Love the fact that i can call this 100usd piece "rare"
Where did this beaut come from mate? Gorgeous.
My just arrived Slevin. Now on to the mods!
I thought the Slevin was no longer produced...?
Which TD you got it from?
Very nice watch! Gen I supose since the double chronograph is working?
Yep Gen, the double Chronograph works fine, I'll take a few better pictures with my iphone (I am a very keen photographer but don't have any close up lenses !)
I am Using a simple 18-55mm and a tripod. Good enough for most shots
Can't wait to see your pics! Have you purchased this beauty brand new? Was it ever serviced?

I bought it new in 2001, with a bracelet which I later sold (probably a silly move, buy always preferred the strap)
It's been serviced quite a few times, it went back for a service, new glass (Now tinted, the original didnt have the blue tint), and a new strap last year. The bill was a about £750 from memory !
I have worn it exclusivley as it is my only watch, I had a few other gens, but the IWC was always my preffered choice. But having seen how good reps are I await my fist one, a Pan 061d.
I'll pop on my 75mm lens and see what shots I can take, my problem is 0.7m minimum focus. But I'll crop and see how I get on
This is a little bigger if it helps, well used but still in good nick considering it's been used for 10 years +
My Mark XVI returned from Vac today. It has gen dial and hands, with crystal double AR'ed.
Strap used is from Peter @ watchacc

Is it an V2? Is there a big difference between rep parts and gen?
I had the feeling my XVI was pretty spot on.
My rep dial was not that centered, while the lume areas, especially hands were not that white.
The print on gen dial was nicer and more white.
