TmeShare Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I am hearing from a knowledgable source that there is a IWC Big Pilot out or about to come out with an ETA movement. Anyone else know anything about this watch? TimeSHare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratchpot Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 If the source was knowledgeable, surely he'd know more than that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
none Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 If the source was knowledgeable, surely he'd know more than that? wow, that sounds good, especially if the case etc. will be better than the previous one(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasigi Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I'd love a good rep of this watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linder Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Are we talking the new Big Pilot that came out a couple years ago or the newest one that came out very recently? Either way, it's a must have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longshot Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 According to my dealer (who is one of the big 2 or 3 here ) there will be a Big Pilot rep out by the end of the year with quality equal to the new Portugeser and Jones IWC's That's all he would say....

JWR Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 how? i cant see how a normal sized movement can have a date that far out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longshot is 100% correct. I have reliable information that not only will the date wheel problem of the current BP rep be fixed, this rep will have a working power reserve as well. The rumor is that the watch will be out before the end of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) Good to hear that at last a IWC Big Pilot comes out. It was/is a missing must have. ..... though , wise rep collectors have learned to wait. Never buy reps as soon as they come out. Wait a min of 4 to 6 months.

Love this watch...and GREAT advice about waiting. My Dad always told me "No matter how much you love a new model car, always wait for a year or two for the bugs to start flying out".
