IWC Connect, An Activity Tracker Integrated Into The Strap Of Big Pilot, And Soon To Be All IWC Sport Watches
Here we go again. Today, IWC made the announcement of a new accessory called IWC Connect. This digital device fits onto the strap of mechanical IWC watches – at first just the Big Pilot – and provides full activity tracking. Further, IWC claims it will be able to control certain devices connected to the "Internet of things," the buzzword du jour. Very, very few details are provided on IWC Connect, or how it will compare to Montblanc's e-strap that you will remember launched in January to much buzz. We'll be following this one closely and we'll report back as soon as more information is provided. Further info available here.

I damaged my 145022 within hours of purchase..
Caught the speedy bug and decided to have one. Lucky enough to find 1 in our local watch forum, but my silly carelessness ruined the watch. Water vapour starts forming within minutes of washing the bracelet. To remedy, i used a hair dryer from a distance and what happened next, the plexi glass fell off.How silly am i?And out of the sudden, the second hand started to fly, it moves so fast, faster then Carl running 100m. OMG

Just acquired my 2nd Patek in 2 months
Very happy to get 5164!

Third time is a charm
Just got a new PP 3 days ago. DavidSW was kind enough to get me the new one I wanted in a few weeks. I like it more than the world time or 5711, both awesome watches, which lasted only days. The moon phase is useful as it helps with the Islamic calendar months which are lunar too. Enjoying this and thanks for all the good reading and others opinions. Regards.

16710 Pepsi or BLNR ?
Hello!Long time lurker, posting for help and ideas...I have a modest Rolex collection of a Ceramic Daytona (black face 116500), Milgauss 116640 GV, 11610 Submariner and 15210 Date (wife has stolen it, fits her well : ). Looking to add another, and I've been focusing on a 16710 Pepsi GMT or a more modern 116710BLNR. While I enjoy both watches for different reasons, I am leaning toward the 16710 Pepsi. I like the slender lugs of the 16710 vs the chunkier BLNR lugs. But, I love the blue and black of the BLNR. I am 5' 10, 155lbs, and I have a 6.5 wrist. The newer thicker lugs of Rolex Sport watches seem just a bit heavy on me. Rolex 36mm watches work (love and had a 114270 Explorer), as do the 40mm watches (with slender lugs, but haven't had a 40mm new Rolex with thicker lugs, other than the Milgauss which seems to be in between).If anyone else has gone through the thick vs thin lug debate I'd be grateful for the help. Thanks!
