    After many
    years I was able to fulfill a dream, but unfortunately it's not
    possible to post iPhone images in Portrait in the correct orientation.

    Image upload is there but not how it should. So probably I keep posting them
    on Facebook as most of the guys and I usually too do. As a forum member who
    joined in the first year of the forum, I find this a little bit disappointing.
    Anyway guys, I hope, you enjoy a little bit with me.

    That is an AMAZING watch! Congratulations to you!

    I distinctly remember a fellow IWC fan describing the IWC perpetual calendar
    of a DaVinci model in the 1980's when I hadn't yet seen one. I smiled as he
    described that it showed not just the date, but the day, and the month, and
    the moonphase...and I laughed out loud with joy when he finally added "and the
    year!" I nearly fell off my chair when he said that in the year 2199 you had
    to have a watchmaker remove the annual indicator and update it with the
    indicator that showed the next three centuries, which, naturally, IWC included
    when you purchased the watch. Incredible!

    Fantastic Tilo - so happy for you mate!

    A beautiful mix too - the BP is a true icon of IWC and the Perpetual Calendar
    testament to the engineering prowess of Kurt Klaus... what more could one
    want?
