I finally have my edition of the 2008 IWC catalogue. It is without the best IWC has ever published.
I do not mean this in any critical fashion what so ever. IWC/Schaffhausen and IWC N. America, please do something about making it possible to order the annual edition on-line. It is truly difficult for those of us who do not reside near multiple IWC AD's to obtain a catalogue when the AD we deal with does not have catalogues.

Thanks from Isobars.
Bravo IWC! ...It is finally here >>>
The distribution of catalogues is rather interesting. I was able to obtain the Annual edition 2008 in late August, and at that time most ADs I spoke with had none or one copy only.
Congratulations !! Pick out something Nice!!...nt
I am waiting for Nr. 3 so far this year. nt.
Re: IWC catalogs
While I do see some merit for wanting to order the catalog on-line I would like to point out that the AD's have the primary responsibility to act on behalf of consumers for all IWC products. They're the ones who invested in the brand and it would behoove them to establish a cordial relationship with potential new customers. If I had a retail watch/jewelry store and a customer called for a catalog I would do everything I can to follow up on the request.
And, a word of advice. If an AD doesn't want to bother getting a catalog for you then go to the next one who does and I'll bet you he will be on your store to buy from list.
