Having been a keen watch enthusiast for many years and having owned a few Rolexes, Cartiers, and Panerais,i purchased my first Iwc two weeks ago. I purchased a 5019 BP TGM. What Iwc should be next on my shopping list.
Congratulations on your new BP and welcome to the forum. I think your question is a bit too broad -- the horological equivalent of "What car should I buy?" The answer depends a lot on your wants and needs. Perhaps you'll get more feedback if you provide a bit more detail. In the meantime, you absolutely should buy a Portuguese Automatic. :)

Welcome, and congratulations on your BP, as for your next, we can all give advice but at the end of the day it's what grabs you. But here's a tip or two. The Vintage Collection is no longer being produced so new are available for limited time. So if they tickle your fancy then do so sooner rather than later. The new Ingenieurs are about to be released at SIHH so expect new in shops depending on market commencing late July. Some may not hit shops and markets until October.

Greg,
Let's hope the new Ingenieur's hit the showrooms as early as late March like last years Pilots did. I think everyone was pleasantly surprised and pleased that product came much sooner than later. Now if we can get the new catalogue dstribution to coincide ..... icing on the cake !

If you are going to HK then there are some forum members there who will happily help you no doubt show you the boutiques. It's rumoured that Shing lives there behind a hidden door.

Welcome DarrylG and conhratulations on your Big Pilot Top Gun Miramar. I think that's the second I learn about as forum owners.
Portugese automatic is a great suggestion http://www.iwc.com/en/collection/portuguese/
Until then, practice opening and closing your wallet.
Welcome to the Forum DARRYLG,

Best regards,
