	quote: Originally posted by Pete_vxl quote: Originally posted by John It's cheap for an auto but expensive for a fake, depends what way you look at it. Trying not to bite however it isn't a fake as it does not say iwc. It clearly says steinhart and has a similar yet different face to the one you posted. I think the preffered term is homage. Call it fake if you wish though if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. BOOM! John's caught a live one :lol:

	quote: Originally posted by James Oh. I thought they only had the movements on display if they are automatic. Shows how little I know about watches :lol: Some autos have a solid back and some have a peep hole/exposed back. If it has an exposed back then you can see a half circle shaped bit of metal that rotates when moved.

Picky people would buy the IWC and not the copy. It does look nice though, being an IWC copy. John :lol: I really do like these though, I quite fancy one of their divers!

	Looks smart - I like it. That's cheap for an auto isn't it?

	I cannot afford an iwc and do not wish to ever pay that price for a watch, so its far from being picky. After conversion and extra strap it was around £300. The crown is customer choice, you can also specify an onion crown however i think a pilot watch should have a diamond crown.
James	posted on 12th Apr 12 at 17:43
	£8k for a second hand one :!

	9 days from order to doorstep including bank hol. Very good. Incase anyone cares here is the blurb; Steinhart Nav B-Uhr II ETA Unitas 6497 Swiss Made geneva stripes & blued screws 17 jewels Hour and minute bluish with super Luminova C1 white Its a 44mm manual wind with exposed back. Very happy with it, good quality, well built and presented nicely. Being picky my manual was not completed with serial number and type of movement however that doesn't really make a difference to your average joe.
