Thanks for sharing. That's an excellent varied collection you have there. All bases covered I reckon. I've considered an IWC "mark" pilots watch a number of times, after seeing one on a colleague's wrist. They can look a bit plain in photos (as a pilot's watch should really. It's meant to be super legible) but they do look so much better in real life.

The IWC mark watches are very understated and most non watch enthusiasts have not heard of IWC so it really does ‘fly’ under the radar (pun intended).

As for legibility, the anti reflective coating, matt black face, white hands and markings means the time is always visible at any angle in any light. It’s not my most worn watch for nothing,

Beautiful collection. Lots of different looks means a different watch for all occasions. Well done! :clap:
