    That’s a beautiful watch and good to hear that IWC are taking that approach. I had a nightmare with their service of my chrono, which was returned with the chrono hand sticking against one of the others.

    I wouldn’t because I think it looks badass. If they get too bad in between now and your next service you could always do it then.

    What are some cheaper budget watches I can get that have the same detail for numbers?

    Replace if they can get the exact same hands.

    It looks like a luminova dial, so I would change out the hands.

    You can if you want lume but you could also have Kyle send the originals back too so you still have them.

    Nope. Don’t replace. It can only be original once
