Watches

Recently acquired an IWC Mark XVIII. Have been searching for a toolish watch that I can wear for work. Did not want the brand of Rolex and specifically wanted something with micro adjust. I had been set on getting a Pelagos 42mm but was disappointed after trying them on 6 months ago. Great watch, but it wore too big and chunky for me to daily.

I've really enjoyed the Mark XVIII. Incredibly thin, flys under the radar and is super legible and comfortable.

I know the Mark XX is out with a "better" movement. But I personally liked the easier to service Sellita based movement in the XVIII. The other big different is that the hands on the XX are polished instead of being black like on the XVIII. I personally like the black hands and that is what drew me to the Pelagos as well.

Cheers 🍻
