I think the thinner bezel on the 3777 makes the watch look a bit nicer. If you do a side by side-- the 3777 looks larger than i think it really is based on the differences in the bezel. So the actual size difference on the wrist is not as great as one might expect based on the photos.

Thanks everyone! I feel I know what model I am going to buy! Yup the watches ate both BNIB and obviously my budget would only Allow me to pick one :) this is my first IWC having owned a tag, Longines and I feel this is the next progression for me!
I will post in the next few days what I eventually purchased! Thanks for all your inputs! Have a good one from here down under!

Will certainly do that Fleek! :)
Cheers! Are pilots usually the "gateway" watch for IWC? I've read several forums and most people after owning the Pilots Chrono would end up getting an IWC Portuguese or the BP!!! That would be an awesome thought! hahaha

Thanks Waimar!
The thin bezel of the 3777 looks quite amazing! Yet the pull of the classic 3717, with its uncluttered design, and all other obvious things you find great in it sings exactly the same!!!!!
This will be a close decision! Post what I bought very soon!!!!!

As for me, it is an IWC iconic piece, especially the BP.
This was my first, 5009
