    Cheers Tilo! Hopefully it is not to far away until you pick up the 3785??

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Mate, unfortunately not yet in near sight. :-(
    But the hope is still for this year. And if not this then the next year anyway.
    Enjoy your new Inge for me too as long as I have to wait. ;-)

    Will do, and look on the bright side, it gives you something to look forward to. :-)

    Jarrod - great pickup!

    I really like the contrast of the dark leather brown strap and the black ceramic.

    Certainly a great addition to any collection.

    Wear in good health.

    Thanks mate. Personally I think IWC nailed it with this colour combo. Photos (as is quite often the case) just don't do it justice. It has to be tried on to be truly appreciated. The colour combo and materials they have put together are quite unique. That is what I love most about it. It is just a brilliant watch to have added to the collection. Very very happy with it. I will post better quality pics when I get home.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Big Congrats Jarrod, a very cool addition indeed! When you have the time it would be interesting to hear how much it weighs compared to the ME.

    Thanks mate. Will let you know when I get it back home. It's all boxed up in the sealed duty free bag to take to the airport tomorrow. From memory and first impressions it is quite a bit lighter. Especially with the bracelet on the ME.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Cool, I would expect that yes. I am surprised as to how comfortable my lightweight titanium YC VOR is.

    Safe travels with the new acquisition!

    You really should Andrew. I know I sound like a broken record but you have to see the colours/design of this watch in the flesh. It's just such a clean design with a unique colour combo. The strap is great too. Overall I couldn't be happier with it.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Heading thru Sydney Airport with my new Inge. I took a photo in the same spot July 2013 with my Mission Earth just after pick up.

    Hi mate,

    Sitting at Sydney airport and comparing the two now. It's a little bit difficult due to the bracelet on the ME. But my guess is the ME is twice the weight of the AMG with the bracelet included. It really is a much heavier watch.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Congratulations, these watches are rare, I don't see them in ADs in Europe.

    It looks fantastic, the photos showing the case shine really capture it.

    Remember to alternate left wrist and right wrist with the two then, don't want you to injure your back by constantly leaning to one side ;-)

    The only place I saw one on my recent travels was in the boutique in Hong Kong. I like that there aren't too many out there.

    A few more pics. Again not great but they are ipad pics. Need to get the proper camera out again. The polished ceramic finish on this watch is genius.
