Ingy Chrono and PR

[Adeodatus]

I'm looking for an accurate gen and I know that the regular Ingy is great, but how are chrono and PR? Anyone still has them?

Would you recommend the Titanium version, guys?

The chrono suffers from the seconds at 6 movement (if you dont know do a bit of reaserch before you buy one)

if you want an IWC chron i have to recomend the 3717, simple movement swap with 7750 and the rep movement works also

[Adeodatus]

right... seconds@6. damn. It can be serviced to work better, though, can't it? In any case it's probably not for me, since I still need to build my 3714 with the serviced movement...

I feel that 3717 is not for me. I think I'm too old for it, unfortunately...

Thanks for the info and the warning, Andy

Too old for a 3717?????????????????????????????

[Adeodatus]

Yeah... I don't know... It looks like a younger man's watch. Maybe I'm wrong, but I only see it on younger people (well, seen it twice, both times on younger people LOL )

I've read your Ingy rep-gen write-up, and the regular Ingy does look great (thanks for that, by the way). But I wanted a bit more and a Choro or even PR versions look fantastic.

How old are you? the 3717 is just a perfect all round non flashy working chrono, the ingy chron for me always failed as it was so big but had no date

[Adeodatus]

Hmmm... maybe you're right. Maybe I should get 3717 just to see how it wears.

The no date never was an issue for me, though. I wish the factories would have a run of IWC's. I'm a big fan, but almost all the watches I like have issues with accuracy / movement.

3717 or any IWC for that matter is really age agnostic so you should not really worry about it.

I have a rep of Ingy Auto that I got back in 2006 with Swiss movt. and it is still running well. this is a great rep and I would recommend it assuming they are still made that well.

The Ingy chrono is a spectacular rep in either stainless of titanium, it's too bad the movement is below average.
