    Would love to see some discussion on this one from the IWC community.
    Although I recently purchased my dream watch, 5002, I am contemplating getting
    the 43 on bracelet. It is such a cool bracelet and with the blue, no power
    reserve dial it might be different enough from my 5002 to justify.

    What do you Big Pilot lovers think of the new 43?

    Well, the 43s ...

    For me personally a nice watch again, because it is the typical BIG PILOT
    design.

    Why then you have to bring an extra new collection onto the market for 3mm
    less diameter is not so obvious to me.

    Unless it's about the golden calf ;-)

    I like the 43mm, will I buy one ? Maybe, I do like my Big Pilot Petit Prince,
    so it would be one with the black dial.

    Do I understand why IWC makes it ? Yes very much, they are a watch company and
    that's their business, making watches that sell. If they don't, thay will not
    stay in business. And luckely they make so many different watches, so the
    choice can be made, 46 or 43. ( or both )
