Seadweller4000 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Sounds great! Jay introdces quite some cool watches lately! As for the movement, what is likely to appear in this model? I think it might be the asian ST-18, copy of the famous 2892 ETA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Would be more than happy with the ST 18, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erwinner Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Sounds great.... Personally I've been begging at silix a couple of times as well, so apparently it pays off to make a lot of noize ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rastapopolos Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Sweet, sweet, schweeeeet, bump, bump, bump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjabo Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 This is the first watch in a while I've been pretty interested in. . . I think I might be able to count myself on the list, I'm just not sure about the size. I kind of like a substantially sized watch, even though my wrist isn't huge. It's just a preference thing I guess. By the way, I also like this: http://www.kingshowbox.com/gallery.php?id=599&img=7750 I don't know anything about IWCs though, so I don't even know what to call it! Hah hah. . .

yellomen Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I don't have contact with any of the dealers lately, so no info regarding possible plans to copy the Mark XVI. So another BUMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FxrAndy Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Any new news would be good about this, how can they not make it ? it is sooooo simple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwinner Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 too bad.... this is the answer I received from Angel & Jay :-( -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2008 23:42:26 +0800 From: silixprime@gmail.com To: xxx@hotmail.com Subject: Re: mk xvi Not much, still waiting. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I have a feeling this ain't gonna be made. Like I've said 100+ times, anything so simple in design is too utterly complicated to rep. The factories wouldn't dare attempt such a difficult project. Besides, at this point, China is wholly enthralled with a Nouveaux-Riches mentality, so repping idiotic watches such as Grahams and DeWitts fit the bill better than the lowly zen-like simple MK XVI.

Pugwash Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Was this ever a realistic proposal? Remember the polls to get a watch made? Nothing came of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I actualy think that the polls were usefull in the long run, I am sure a couple of them were made in the end, was the slevin not the poll winner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but not by the manufacturer that put up the compo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 True, mate but i think there were looked at by manufacturers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dovo1695 Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 The April 2008 issue of "Watch Time" magazine has a full page write up on the Mark XVI with some gorgeous pictures (lume shot included!). I would buy one of these watches in a second if they decide to rep it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
