    Your pictures and enthusiastic stories convinced me to try the BP on my wrist. The very first time I saw this watch, I thought I could never wear something this big but time changes and so did my taste. A while ago, I could give the 5004 a really close look when I met Norbert and from that moment, I was lost. I admit that it's also my own fault, using a desktop background with a BP doesn't make it easier to resist the calling of this beauty!

    I am supposed to leave it in its box until Christmas (or Sinterklaas, which is much earlier on December 5th ;-) but tonight, I had to try it on my wrist and couldn't resist taking a few snapshots.

    I hope I will be able to put the BP back in the box and that it doesn't have glue on it like the Port Auto 2000 from Nad ;-)

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    Very handsome watch!

    This forum is not a good place to go if you want to try an resist purchasing additional IWC watches! I am trying to limit my visits to this site until after Christmas or else I run the risk of purchasing the Ardoise Portuguese.

    Good choice, cinq. It looks great on your...

    wrist. We're such a bad influence. lol
    Actually, we're the people that your parents warned you about when you were growing up 8-P Peer pressure at its best. lol

    Congratulations

    on your decision to own the Big Pilot.

    It looks absolutely stunning on you and the calling of this watch over this year to forum members has been magnificent.

    The BP in three different forms has been a big highlight for me this year - and I am deleighted that you have got one now in your collection.........but come on Cinq - get it back in the box and under the xmas tree - so you can have all this fun next month too....

    Bravo

    Andrew

    A good psychiatrist knows...

    When to let people do their thing or when to stop them. I am glad you didn't talk me out of it :-)

    Hi Clemens, wow, that's a big surprise!!!!! >>>>

    BIG CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The BP looks amazing on your wrist & I'm afraid that the glue is already setting hard, LOL!!!

    The BP is such a classic icon that it belongs in everyone's IWC collection, IMO ;-))

    Wear it in the best of health and enjoy it for many years to come, cheers :-)
