unregistered Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 As most know, I sold my LW Hard Black II (this months background) recently to fund my next chapter in life. However, an arbitrage opportunity presented itself in this lovely grey-toned black & yellow beauty. The lovely IWC Aquatimer Chronograph Titanium 371903. Got it at a crazy price and will flip it shortly, but till then, here are some stunning pictures with my modded IWC Aquatimer Cousteau Diver 2006 Wristie on my 6.75" wrists Lume shot 1s exposure Incredibly light. Amazing quality. The bezel construction is different on the gen from the reps, so crisp to turn and use. The movement feels butter smooth and the 7750 wobble is lovely.

_brian_ Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Congratulations to the watch and thanks for the pix! It seems there is no lume on the bezel. That gen 7750 is surely great, it´d be nice to have a foto of the movement too. I think the 42mm aquatimer looks better sizewise but it´s surely a question of taste.

unregistered Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Speedman: The CD has had everything done to it except the wood caseback mod. Serviced movement, relumed and doubleAR. The bezel construction between the gen and rep are very different, you can feel it when using it. _brian_: There is lume on the bezel for the Ti Chrono, just that its ridiculously weak. The white C1 lumed parts are fine, the yellow parts hardly glow. I actually find the 42mm slightly too small, but ok with a suit. Just got an old IWC Ti GST and that is small, even though its meant to be the same case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
