something new for 2018... The Tribute to Pallweber

Its a great tribute to Pallweber even though I know some people will not like the hours and minutes indication, but for me especially this is pure history.

I have seen also the Portugieser Perpetual Calendar Tourbillon Edition “150 Years” in 18K red gold and this is a stunner!!!

Oh, that is sublime. So beautiful. Want!

PS - Red gold? Will yellow gold ever make a return?

Very cool watch with a clear line to IWC history!
Congrats!

I think it is absolutely brilliant and audacious. A stunning beauty with a deep bow to the past. The movement looks great too. This is a true gift to the IWC watch community.

Kind regards,
Paul

I have wanted IWC to create a Pallweber wristwatch for years! I'm sorry to see it in RG rather than SS, but perhaps a SS case edition may come later?

Is there any information on expected pricing?

Just Gorgeous :o)

Check this article out... has the suggested retail price shown:

It's great watch, but as usual better to see it in flesh than on photo. Looks nice on the wrist!

Nice little write up on this edition on Hodinkee today.

Not my cup of tea but very nice! I wonder when the most "leakage"-es from the SIHH material will follow... :)

Wow...very cool!

It's a winner! Just amazing, I would prefer it in SS too.

Cheers Chris

It's very retro and special style. Innovation from the past transcripted in today's era. Really handsome!

Would have liked to see the dial with a little more flair.

See this post from 2007

Greg, I agree. That would have been even cooler.
But the IWC logo is not compliant with today's standards - unfortunately. :-)

You are right. The dial design of the gold "Tribute to Pallweber" is too understated, no pizazz at all.
But what 'kills' it, is the modern IWC logo. Not using the old cursive script is particularly egregious, especially in a watch commemorating the 150th anniversary, IMHO.
On the positive side, the caliber 94200 is an excellent new movement, which I hope IWC will use in later versions, with different dial design and the old script.
Hope springs eternal, but is not a plan. ;-)
