  1. I have seen many pics now of the 2008 Cousteau Aquatimer, but I've yet to figure out whether any of them get at the correct dial color. Can anyone speak to the quality of the blue in the Aquatimer? Is it too light? This pic shows the Cousteau diver with a much darker blue than any of the pics I've seen on the rep sites. Is it lighting?

    I'm going to pull the trigger on this one, but if the blue isn't right (meaning if it isn't vibrant enough) I'm going for the slevin.

    thanks.

    That is decaffeinately photoshopped... I can tell the black color is on high, light on low and mid on even... and you can see the contrast that gives it a rich color... I doubt the watch is that color accurate or color rich.

  2. Fellas.

    Check it out, I been checking some reps and some are Asian and some are Swiss. I tried to Wikipedia the both but not much information was given :(

    So my question to you IWC freaks out there :) is - what's the difference between Asian & Swiss? Is it the movement? is the Swiss automatic and rolls rather than ticks? Does the Asian tick and not roll?

    Let me know cause I wanna buy the Cousteau rep :)

  3. 2006 Cousteau - 44mm. Bigger both in terms of diameter and depth - more weekend wear as it has rubber strap.

    Yes sir! That's the one, I was thinking of getting the Cousteau or the Portuguese!

    So, let's say I get a rep of the Costeau or the Portuguese, should I modify it like most people on this form do? The rubber band on the costeau is good quality?

  4. Hey Folks.

    Im caught up - and I need some help plz ^_^

    Here's the scoop, I dont have the money to buy a real IWC watch :( hopefully one day :)

    Alright can you guys please listen + a pic of your the best;

    1. Everyday wear

    2. Occasional wear

    The reason I am asking this is because, well - I want to wear a watch every day and want to avoid buying a cheap rep that the gold plated finish will fade, or the wristband will rip and so on... im just getting bored of wearing this all the time :(
