Hey Antonio - didn't I say big watches were part of IWC's DNA ???
LOL - just kidding. I know you are estatic about this piece. Glad it has reached its home - and a truly fitting and well-deserved home it is. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

There is a story, but I do not know how interesting it is. It is for sure a testimony of how this forum is more than "just" about IWC watches, vintage or new, and also about the people.

I don't know about anyone else, but I love hearing about how this Forum brings so many together and how the people here help each other, especially when it comes to our shared passion. This story sounds like it must be a good one. Please do tell us more!
Omar Khayyám (Persia XI-XII Century) offered that Time should not only be measured in length but also in width due to the intrinsic difference between a minute or other depending on what is happening to the beholder... I wonder how a watch would look like...
