    Always been a great admirer of the VC Ingenieur. I have always felt that it is a perfect three hand watch indicating time and date. The dial may be simple but the luminescent dots, calatrava stripe markers and the beautiful dauphine hands adds to its uniqueness giving it an individualistic look.
    I have the opportunity of enjoying the platinum version for a while which I wish I could also add to my collection.i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x372/10VISHU/DSC_1808_zps44fcbb96.jpg

    They're beautiful, Vishal. Your pictures of them always make my mouth water. But it seems you are missing the Laureus and the Tribute to Italy? Or is it the ardoise and Italy? Or original black? I am soooo confused!

    Still two to go - but there is plenty of 2013 left! :-)

    Beautiful, Vishal. What I love about the platinum version is the fantastic color of the lume -- very vintage, early 60s. One of these days I'll add a VC Inge to my collection, though probably not platinum.

    Vishal, an amazing collection of very handsome pieces!

    I like them all . . . especially keen on the rose gold version and will seriously consider adding that to my collection possibly needing to break the current "no yellow/rose gold in my collection" rule !

    Thanks for sharing.

    What a wonderful collection Vishal, thanks for the beautiful pictures. Do you have a hard time picking the watch for the day?

    @Mark: go for it! I have seen that piece in RG in Schaffhausen and it's stunning!

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    PS: you have to update your signature image :-)

    Hi Dick

    I think there are missing the two boutique versions and the Tribute to Italy.
    The Laureus one is present - with the super sunray blue hue.

    Vishal - I am also one of the VC Ingenieur fans and hope to one day have all the ones I love. It must have been exciting to have the Platinum visitor to your collection. Hopefully one day your wish comes true ! I wish for it too - for YOU and for ME TOO ;-)

    Great photos.

    Vishal,
    Magnetic, hummm! You could not have chosen a less appropriate qualifier for your relationship with the VC Ingenieur. :-)
    I only hope that the magnetic field generated by the spell is not too strong, or the watches will become very inaccurate, or stop altogether. :-)
    Had you chosen any other qualifier, I would not have participated in this thread, since I believe I said all that needs to be said about Ingenieurs that are not amagnetic.
    To end on a positive note I must admit that, esthetically, they are arguably the best looking Ingenieurs ever. Excellent pictures, BTW.
    Safe landings.
