As some of you know, I have lusted over the Patrouille Suisse Limited since I first tried it on my wrist in Geneva last January. If Alan had pulled the trigger on the Blue Dial White Gold BP I was going to buy the 37174, well for good reasons that didn't work out. Then that evening at dinner Andrew let me try his on and on re confirmed my desire. Flash forward to May and Andrew is in NYC and guess what he is wearing and the need to acquire goes to new highs. Then Shing is always posting pictures of said watch and it is no longer controllable.
An email to the very helpful IWC Boutique Manager in Geneva, Oifae Houssa, and yes they have one left. Long story short, below are a few quick photos of the arrival.
After wearing it all evening and overnight it is everything I had expected.
Will post some additional photos over the weekend.
Oh, the Subject, Last one this year,promise, was my response to my wife when she said, not another watch!! Her reaction, was to laugh. Think she has heard that before.
Thanks for looking.
