World Traveller Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 The 42mm Aquatimer looks great, the size looks more balanced and appeals more to me than the big Jacques Cousteau Diver. The more I study the IWC designs I'm really starting to like the IWC aesthetic. There are a few others that I may get in addition to the Aquatimer, what are your opinions on these, I see am excellent review of the Pilot here Here's a couple of shots of some of these favorite IWC Gens for comparison: The St. Exupery doesn't appear anymore on the IWC site, I have heard only 1630 of these were made.

That was last year edition, I think there is new St.E line this year. regrards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Have you considered the GST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2222 Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 GST is a great rep too, BTW is is still possible to get it from our dealers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 The GST is still available as far as I know. This was maybe the first of the Super-reps. I like the base design of the IWC, almost like the evergreen Omega Speedmaster. But, I don't like the way they have substituted a part of the tachymeter scale with the "International Watch Co." in Italic... To me, that does not fit well with the technical/ functional design of the rest of the watch. Nevertheless, a nice watch. I prefer the Inge though. But the Gerald Genta design is not for everyone.
