My name is Shane and I am an IWCAholic
I bought 2 IWC's last week, a beautiful 1942 SS watch with a two tone dial and a brand new AT 3548, I am still waiting for them to arrive and I have my eye on a few more at the moment. That makes 6 IWC's in total at the moment and growing quickly. I could be adding another one to the stable tomorrow if the price is right.

I believe your condition is one that a few on this forum share. If we weren't all hooked why would we be on here in the first place ?
But as with any addiction the one thing you can be sure of is that the satisfaction of the "fix" lasts for a shorter and shorter time, before your body and sole "needs" the next one :-) Buying the watch is inevitable so enjoy it while you can.

I think I need help, I bough another 3 IWC's over the weekend. Is there an IWC Anonymous?
They were an IWC Porsche Design Ocean 2000 and 2 Porsche design titan's (ladies and gents)and still have my eye on a few others. (and I am not even a big fan of the Porsche design, although I do like the Ocean 2000)

It's one year or so since I went to Geneva...so, yesterday I took the train south... not a rainy day, but the dark clouds made a wonderful scenery with the lake.. but, was quite windy, so I went to the IWC boutique and then they had this one in the vitrine... why ? why they didn't have the steel version??

That's what I call an understated reveal - 3 IWCs over the weekend, not bad at all. Is this what is known as "going on a binge" for us addicts? - LoL

abs0 Wrote:Bendy,
Are you saying you are about to start a rehab program? please let me know where and how I can sign up...
I dont think I could get further from rehab if I tried. More like I have just found a new dealer and they have some top quality "junk" for me to get my fix on.
What makes this worse is that these are "authorised" dealers - there is a complete network of manufacturers trying to peddle their wares that have setup illicit distribution networks and condone the pushing of these products to try and trap us innocent consumers - I just dont have the will power to stand up to this kind of activity!
