    Here are some impressions from this years Collectors Meeting at Watches and
    Wonders in Geneva. Please add more photos and comments.

    This year's topic was of course the Return of the legendary Design by Gerald
    Genta in the new Ingenieurs. Therefore the Booth's theme was all retro and
    technic with a Mercedes-Benz C111-III as main
    eyecatcher:

    The new Ingenieurs (IW3289) in stainless steel in a stylish presentation
    case:

    And the one model in
    Titanium:

    Besides the presentation of the new watches, we had a wonderful program packed
    with exciting presentations and discussions with IWC staff. Even CEO Chris
    Grainger-Herr took time for us during this very busy
    week:

    At the end of the meeting, our Moderater Tonny was noticeably
    pleased:

    A big thank
    you to all, who made this wonderful experience possible, first of all to IWC
    for their support and generosity, to Tonny and in my opinion even above all to
    this wonderful community.

    It's called "Watches and Wonders". The watches are obvious and the wonders are
    in my opinion the amazing encounters, talks, laughs and unforgettable
    moments with the collector friends!

    As Philipp wrote, it was an outstnding experience to be part of the W&W this
    year. The IWC Collectors Forum community is just phenomenal.

    But without the suppprt of the IWC staff and our esteemd moderator Tonny it
    would not happen.

    Thnaks a lot

    I had an amazing time at W&W's. Thank you IWC. The new Ingenieur is
    brilliant..... but the best part was catching up with friends and enjoying a
    beer. Was great to meet you Phillip. And everyone else!
