MacTavish Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hi guys I'm going to buy a 3717 but since I'm not an IWC expert, I need your help. Which one currently is the closest to 1:1? The v3? What are the biggest tells? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhorn Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 The v3 was the last version of the 3717 to come out. Now that the 3777 is out, I'm not sure if it's still available from the dealers. If you aren't wanting to mod the watch then it's the best out of the box. Stay away from the v2 because the dial lume is wrong. The v1 has the best dial, but lacked AR from the factory. Personally I would find an M2M sale that had the ETA date wheel swap, and aftermarket AR already done if you are looking for 'the best'. Those are the two easiest and IMO, must have, mods. You could also check with Vac and see if he can still do one for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
