1. Thanks Chad for the kind words....AGAIN!
2. I NEVER EVER encourage ANYONE to try to emphasize any of my projects as official IWC made/built watches!
Let this be told..once and for all..never ever ever try to fool someone by telling them it´s a "standard" watch with lost papers etc.
These projects are assembled by a certified watch technician..not by a standard watch wiz..like Domi, The Zigmeister or any other of our amazing modders! This technician works with these watches everyday and i honestly believe that there is NO, ZERO, NONE difference between this assembling and that in the "official" way! You are indicating that these parts somehow has got "lost" from the factory and/or is used service parts. This is not true!
There is a BIG difference between having official papers, receipts with warranties etc that you get from a normal transaction with a AD, and that of one of these projects! This is also why there is a major price difference (compared to buying a brand new gen). All parts in these projects are brand new, that´s why i am comparing it to a price for a new!
Anyway...to be certain this is not used by anyone with the intent to try to fool someone else..i will edit my post about going to AD.
I am sorry for the confusion.
