Portuguese Chronograph vs Rattrapante

Dear all

I have thinking about getting my first IWC for a few years now...
I am split between the chronograph (blue aligator strap/blue numbers) or a rattrapante - I have seen some excellent rattrapantes out there especially the limited edition Platinum 250!

Could anyone share photos of their own watches?

I am also really struggling to find a good dealership - I have found the best prices seem to be offered by online dealers, who do not have showrooms and generally have company filings less that 2 years old, which for me, isn't good enough. Any general recommendations?

Both are wonderful watches at a very different price range of course. A premium for Rattrapante + Platinum will be there of course.
That said this forum is non commercial and we cannot discuss third party marketing platforms and their credibility here. It's forbidden by forum rules.
One rule of thumb is to buy the dealer with the watch. He needs to be trustworthy in any aspect as any authorized IWC dealer is.

I would definitely go for the rattrapante, unless you must have an automatic.

Mine:

Beautiful Ratt Kelvin. May I ask what is your wrist size ?

Cheers,

Andy
