Purchased my first IWC today, had not considered one before, I was going to the AD to purchase a Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso. Very happy with my IWC watch. The movement on the IWC web states 38 jewel movement 89361. However on the back case the movement is 40 jewel 89360 is this correct?
You should search our archives since this has been discussed several times before (use the magnifying glass upper right). Basically the 89361 is a slightly newer version of the 89360 with a different shock absorber system. See for example http://www.iwc.com/forum/en/discussion/30123/?page=2#post_329091

AD was very helpful. Contacted IWC to exchange for the newer model. Opinions varied over which is the better movement. Due to the long lead time to get the 89361 movement shipped I exchange the watch for a Portuguese Yatch Club Chrono 89361. The dealer was excellent and I'm very happy with my new watch

Deano, the Portuguese Yacht Club is an excellent choice and a favorite here on the Forum. Which did you select the White or Black dial? Enjoy you watch,wear it in good health and post some pictures.

My watch then should have the new movement 89361.
I will contact the AD as this was sold as the latest model.
