    Beautiful picture! We have to wait for a while here. Snow is predicted but until now it's not snowing yet.

    Kind regards,

    The Deep Two not in but on some very cold water, also known as ice:

    It is so happy to be close to its natural habitat that it even sparkles :-)

    Hmm, in some parts of the Netherlands they had 6 inches of snow. We just had a tiny bit as you can see in this picture.

    Okay, I'll take on the challenge. Each year I head to Zermatt for a ski holiday. The IWC's that make the trip with me over time have been my 3327, AT200, and my BP 5002. All have been in the elements, but I have to say the 3227 is almost always the one on my wrist while skiing. It is one tough watch able to take the bumps better than me.

    First take a look at the scenery in Zermatt. This is the ride up to the Klein Matterhorn. Yes, I do ski down from there, but the runs are on a glacier on the back side of this view.

    The 3227 is my mainstay as I noted:

    The AT 2000 make the trip a couple of times too...

    It also is with me for a wee snack after skiing...have to love Swiss Raclette.

    One day, at the bottom of a lift, this IWC AT ad caught my eye.

    Lastly, my 5002 is in the snow albeit for a gentle walk through the woods, not for skiing down the slopes.

    So, snow and IWC's go together quite nicely for me.

    Hi Everyone,

    Coming back to work in Africa I was received by the harsh rain season at its worse...
    So, unfortunately here no beautiful clean photos of IWCs in snow, but I'll share with you a bit of flooding and mud.

    The AT Chrono proved an adequate choice to go around...!

    Fortunately things are much better today.

    Cheers!

    Thank you, Jeronimo. Very impressive pics! Your SUV is in his element, no city curbs needed. ;)
    It was a bit dryer on your continent on my last visit in 2011

    Hi Hajo,

    Great shot of the Doppel!

    And that is exactly how it feels good, dry outside, drinks inside!

    Cheers!

    Slashdot - great thread. This has been on my mind and after my most recent trip (indulgence) and I'd love to own an IWC that I could take skiing with me.

    Bill B - I think I remember you saying you took your 3327 skiing in another thread with the line "it can take the knocks" and it stuck with me. Great endorsement! That said, I also like the white on white AT2000 for the snow.

    The Swiss Raclette looks like perfect fare for the snow too. I had schweinehaxen once at St Anton and have been on a mission to find a comparable meal ever since.
