IWC Gets Bored; Rebrands A Top Gun Automatic Chronograph Watch To A Limited Edition For the German National Football Team
Lets not use the term recycling, but that is pretty much what IWC is doing right here. But this happens a lot, and if there was a watch to release, this would be the one. The IWC Pilots Watch? Chronograph Automatic Top Gun Edition was a really nice, and really desirable watch. Forget the movie tie in for a moment, and look at its handsome instrumental good looks, nice color contrast, and complex functions with the double chronograph. Apparently it did not matter to IWC that Top Gun actually game over 20 years prior to releasing the watch, there could be NO OTHER military plane related movie that would suffice.

5227

I've noticed current WG Daytona's drop in value for about the 10 years to loose 40-50% .... Will a 5227 do that
