Always interesting to see the rebirth of a model, its evolution, and the design work.
You did a great job!
There was a question for me : The impact of the consumer/ passionate/ collector we are in the choice of the design.
Guy answered.
Another responsible of another brand one day told me that the only feed back they had was the feedback of the A.D,
not of the final client, and he seemed to regret it.
As for the watch, mybe I will appear too conservative, but I prefered the previous model of the Da Vinci.
But, as always, colors and tastes....On this, Guy is very right!
Thanks again, Kong, for your great post!

and superb to see how a new model comes to life. In general I am not a great fan of round watches, but in this case I still like the first round version better, I may have to get used to it but a portrait of Mr. Klaus on the back is a bit much to me. Geo
Awesome report Kong

Thanks Kong. I still prefer the old round case Da Vinci... However i still fail to see the relation to the tortoise is that idea of tortoise by IWC itself? I am a tortoise lover...hehehe... Regards
