    I really can't decide between new Top Gun Automatic (no chrono) and the new
    Spitfire Chono textile strap.

    Any comments to help decision? Thanks

    Osvaldo,

    I just bought the IWC Le Petit Prince XVIII and I considered both of the above
    when buying my watch.

    I actually tried on the Top Gun Automatic, the IWC Spitfire Automatic and t
    the IWC Pilot Chronograph.

    My comments on the above are

    • Top Gun Automatic. Couldn't justify the price considering a Rolex Datejust 36 was a similar cost.
    • IWC Spitfire Automatic. Case didn't have the finish of the IWC XVIII
    • IWC Pilot Chronograph. Too big for me.

    Just my thoughts anyway

    Thanks, I have the same impression about the Automatic Top Gun, but it´s a 72h
    movement. I know that´s not enough to justify though.

    I have the same issue with the Spit Chrono.
