Tropical Dial; I Love This Term
Pre-owned watch sellers love this term too.
It gives a vintage watch a certain "descriptive charm".
In reality, a tropical Dial is a "Moisture Damaged Dial"!
Are there any other watch description terms that you just love?

Got my Grail
(ALREADY POSTED IN THE IWC FORUM)

All I can say is that pix don’t come close to showing how gorgeous this watch is (nor does the crappy camera on my 4 generation old iPhone).
It’s stunning in the sunlight.
And it’s so thin.
And I love the bracelet.
The butterfly clasp looks gorgeous, almost like there is no clasp at all, but it’s too fiddly for me.

Tariffs, Your Portfolio, and Watch Buying
Since the tariffs were announced, my portfolio, and I'm sure many of yours also, have dropped considerably.
I'm seriously considering backing out of purchasing my grail watch. It's just not a good time, financially, to be spending $11K …
Ingenieur Purchase Questions
I'm smitten by the blue dial IW328907 Ingenieur and am considering buying one.
Are any dealers in your area offering discounts?
Also, can I purchase it with the micro-adjust clasp and do away with the cost of the butterfly clasp?
Yeah, I know that…
