Who can see through the clouds?

Pilots watches, I love them! Many of my fellow watch collectors share this appreciation also, still if you think the best is IWC please re-adjust your thought process. Several companies make the Pilot look and I like a great deal of them, just not the IWC. IWC is over priced!….
Look at the movement picture above-On the left Glashütte Original on the right IWC. A Picture may be worth a thousand words, but a 2892 ETA is not worth $5000.00+. Buy a Fortis easyreader-Fleiger and then save for the Glashütte, it will be worth it in the long run. CTWG

Those cases are too big for those movements imho, disappointing from a brand like GO. ;-(

Chris, the one on the right is a IWC, that was my point too. The guts just are not there for the watch. CTWG

Wow, this photo’s worth waaay more than just 1,000 words. I’ve heard that Glashütte Original is considering providing a sapphire display case back as an option for its Navigator watches. This would make sense as it seems such a shame for GO to cover such a beautiful movement, although historically a solid case is correct.
Shame on IWC!
