Wow...beautiful photos of a beautiful Jubilee...it doesn't get any better! I am especially at peace knowing that no animals were harmed in this photographic endeavor. :>))

Genuinely like the watch and I appreciate the zero speed they were taken at. It is so much safer than the total idiot I saw today in my home town driving along chatting on one phone hand held and texting on another. Sadly I had no means of grabbing a snap as a pedestrian of such lunacy even though the limit is 30mph and she was slower than that due to volume of traffic. Looking at list of countries that only allow hand free usage includes Germany Holland UK which in Germany's case is not a bad thing as 50% of autobahns are derestricted but carry an advisory limit of 130 mph and excess speed can carry penalties even on those roads. So apart from being illegal to use hand held phones it has to be assumed that taking snaps would also be illegal, asking for an exception from a UK court and they would just laugh at you and smack your licence with points and a fine, too many points and bye bye licence.
I am now 57 and when I was a mere 5 year old a school mate was killed by 3 cars and 1 car killed his grandmother at Brighton, his parents having previously been killed in a car accident. Death and taxes are the only certainties of life.
Wear your watch with care pride and in good health for a long time. And yes I know I do get steamed up especially when intelligent people switch off and show less consideration than my Downs syndrome brother in law. At least he has a bonna

When Nad gives up his business (sell retire or...) he should get himself a pro spec camera and lenses and do the job as a fulltime travel reporter, apart from his love of being in shot with or without a glass and cigar to hand he has an eye for getting a good photograph even with a point & squirt. What he could do with a short photography course and lessons in Photoshop might make him a photographer of repute.
PS Pro spec cameras etc weigh a bit and will destroy his current wardrobe, with strap marks from cameras and bags. Can Nad slum it in chinos jeans and a multipocket photographers jacket, without running to the cleaners everyday?
Here's the same photo posted on IWC Facebook:
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr, it feels colder with the wind!!!!!
See, the speedometer is at ZERO ;-))))))
These were taken earlier in the morning at the office:
Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Nad
Best regards

Thank you.
P.S. Were any animals hurt in making the strap for this watch?
