A Pile of IWC Marks: The History of the Series

[@WMDZone]

Another terrific video! You're definitely one of the best watch KZbinrs.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks so much

[@gaius68]

That's a very helpful video on the IWC Pilot history - thanks for sharing. The IWC Mark XX has now superseded the Mark XVIII and has a great spec!

[@1000lightyrs]

I'm a mad Mark fan, but I just had to pause and like at River. Too many legends in this video, well done man!

[@jasonlam9374]

Nice video. I ordered a new Mark XVIII that's coming out this year. Can't wait to get my hands on it! The more I get to know about the Mark series, the more I am attached to it.

[@mjbxxv]

This was the perfect video for me at the most perfect time. I’ve been researching these for months and then bam, you made this video. Thank you

[@A.T.148-Scot-HK]

The Mark 11 is probably the most iconic model. In my opinion, the Mark series should really be IWC's most iconic line - it's the only one that's been in continuous production since the late 1940s. The Portuguese and Big Pilot were only reintroduced in the 90s and 2000s. Excellent vid as always Evan.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks so much. And good points.

[@josephlee3169]

The two watches IWC needs to make yesterday 1. IWC Mark XI reissue - 38mm, no date, in-house movement, available with 20mm leather and canvas straps or a mesh bracelet with the new eas-x change system 2 IWC Mark XII reissue available in 36 and 38 mm, in-house movement, 20mm leather strap or a mesh bracelet with the new eas-x change system Is this not an obvious hit in the making?????

[@bv2225]

Great video! Thanks for the insight into these, I love my MkXV and think they are truly underrated

[@sanghoonlee5171]

Your lovingly produced video on Mark XVIII convinced me to buy it. At first I thought to get it with a leather strap, but watching your video 2 or 3 times revealed the bracelet's charm. I am very happy with the purchase. I like it so much that I don't feel the need for a Submariner anymore.

[@YoureTerrific]

Outstanding! It's so good.

[@clockmaker1]

Great, great video! Bravo! You have become one of the best channels about watches on YT, without a doubt.

[@YoureTerrific]

While I disagree, I thank you.

[@jamesjeal]

Great video! Very cool to see them all together. I’m fortunate enough to have been handed down a Mark 11 which is my pride and joy - very interesting to see the evolution of them all!

[@YoureTerrific]

Wow, that's amazing. And thanks.

[@jsaint617]

this is great, its getting me psyched for the new Big Pilot 43 I ordered!

[@YoureTerrific]

Congrats! It looks great.

[@martinw6881]

Very nice, was eyeing that but haven't got the wrist for it.

[@atl3630]

Baby pilot

[@simon0044]

Sorely missing the mark xv, 38mm with the upgraded eta movement with all Iwc parts (all gold plated) with the similar mark xii dial and hands. The sweet spot 👍

[@emregunel1270]

I have one and I think it is one of the most proportionate watches ever made. one may or may not like the design but you can't find a single flaw with the design of that watch.

[@m3nm3nm3n]

Great video! I love the IWC pilots. And since you like the size of the Mark XII, perhaps you should get to try on the Pilot Automatic 36 (IW324010)? I would at least enjoy a video about that watch!

[@chubbymonkey6604]

Absolutely loved this video and the Mark. Thanks for the amazing content!

[@11Elevon]

you do every watch justice by giving them each an amazing video

[@theunitedkingdomofhorology8996]

Great video mate, always had a respect for the Mark series since your initial video, always thought it seemed a worthy contender to the Explorer. Also it baffles me how a couple of people have disliked this video, its beautifully shot, has great audio and is about something that is relatively uncovered in the watch space. Not to mention it takes bloody ages to make a video (I've tried)! Stay true to your path bro, it only leads to good places :)

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks. If there’s a good video on KZbin, it has dislikes. If a video doesn’t have dislike it’s only because nobody has watched it.

[@palmeadia]

Another excellent video, great content and production. I like this channel a lot.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@stevewang216]

18 prince is the most beautiful one

[@fendushi]

Awesome video. I love this brand and happy to say I own one of those watches, the blue dial Le Petit Prince. I will be happy to have all those watches in my collection.

[@scottsodyssey2485]

Beautiful Fliegers, thanks for sharing this video.

[@michaelfierman3256]

quite a show today! I love that silver Mark XVI; had never seen it before.

[@YoureTerrific]

It's definitely the prettiest. I found myself staring at its dial.

[@UnseenHero]

Of the ones you showed off I really liked the 12 as well. The bracelet looks awesome!

[@YoureTerrific]

It’s really good

[@EsbjornWristwatchReviews]

Great work as always

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks!

[@zacharypaul94]

been looking for videos like this. loved it (Y)

[@michaelriera6277]

Wonderfully narrated story of the Mark series.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@JogieGlenMait16]

this is more interesting than what watchfinder's video about a new tudor. i'm leaving a like for this one for sure.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks!

[@davidoleary6631]

Great video and I like that you covered IWC. The brand appears to be widely respected but doesn't get the love that other brands receive.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks. I agree. To be fair, they’ve got some tough competition out there.

[@mattk04]

Nice video. I have a Mark XV white dial and it looks very similar to your XVIII's design.

[@chrisb5986]

Love these. On my short list.

[@choond]

This is an excellent video

[@matteomarongiu-porcu23]

Thank you for the great retrospective review. Random question, what's the wrist circumference used as model in the video? Thank you!

[@cotecote9214]

You skip over the IWC Mark XV (15) ! Love the vids

[@harrydebenham803]

I love the Mark XVIII, I am yet to put on a watch that feels and looks better in my opinion. Shame it’s just slightly out of the price range right now. I almost bought a Mark XVI a few weeks back, but it just didn’t give the same feeling, plus the leather strap was terrible! So I decided if I’m going to get an IWC, best to wait and get the one I really want on a bracelet. Great video, keep it up!

[@YoureTerrific]

Yes. If you can save up and get the bracelet, do it!

[@ManoloVintage]

I have a question. Does the Mark xviii La Petite Prince have a white seconds hand or is it polished? I love your collection.

[@scottt.4596]

Great video! Thanks!

[@jollygoodyo]

Damn that's one beautiful collection

[@YoureTerrific]

Not bad, right?

[@danbarnet1222]

Nice video. my favs are the XV and the XVIII

[@dimitriskataras8507]

Great story telling!!

[@Newtypenewtype]

Wow what an assembly! That Dirty Dozen in particular has me smiling...

[@hjander]

Smiling because it reminds you of the movie, The Dirty Doze (1967)? Except that instead of 12 U.S. soldiers parachuting across enemy lines to assassinate German personnel at a French chateau, in this video it refers to 12 Swiss watch manufacturers (Buren, Cyma, Eterna, Grana, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Lemania, Longines, IWC, Omega, Record, Timor and Vertex) that collaborated with the German Ministry of Defense during WWII to kill, among others, U.S. soldiers. Under the American justice system, that would make each such company an accessory before the fact - that is, a person (or company) who aids, abets, or encourages another to commit a crime but who is not present at the scene. An accessory before the fact, like an accomplice, may be held criminally liable to the same extent as the principal. "Dirty" because they have blood on their hands.

[@AcmeRocket]

I have the XVI silver dial spitfire but love them all.

[@4oclockcrown882]

Great video! Love it!

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks so much

[@travischang1175]

16 had the best most comfortable and greatest looking bracelet+ clasp

[@ThePianoTester]

Amazing video. When do you think the Mark 19 will be released? This year or maybe next?

[@RH-vd3yu]

Looking at the Longines Spirit for a cheaper alternative. Only wish it came in 38mm at least

[@roderickos3980]

Thanks for the wonderful flight my captain!

[@YoureTerrific]

Thank you for choosing Terrific Airlines.

[@watchcurtisn]

What do you think about the new 36mm? I’m torn between it and the 40mm XVIII

[@YoureTerrific]

You just have to go try them on and see which sings to you.

[@watchcurtisn]

@@YoureTerrific Good answer! Unfortunately I’m nowhere near any watch retailers. I either need to travel or order online... it’s a real pain.

[@normang663]

Waiting for a preowned mark xx

[@alim_sheikh]

Awesome video

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@zulu6ix290]

Amazing

[@Watchmade]

Legendary lineup

[@YoureTerrific]

Yes indeed

[@love4watches_pt765]

Evan! What??!?! I just got delivered my first big watch purchase, a IWC Mark XV tritium! I absolutely love the mark series and you launch a video like this!?!? Great minds think alike 😅 beautiful video as always 👌🏼

[@YoureTerrific]

Hey, congrats! Something is in the air.

[@pierremartin9048]

Great stuff

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@horlojerie]

The Mark 11 was the pinnacle.

[@_Peter_.]

IWC mark 9 or 10 are interesting, but IMHO the Omega 2292 RAF looks better. Thanks for the video!

[@mariusz8751]

Very nice video :)

[@VivekSingh-hy1dk]

I sincerely want to know your opinion on seven Friday watched. Please reply

[@YoureTerrific]

They look fun, but I’ve never tried one on.

[@vicentvanmole]

great inform. Sure it has not changed much beside the price

[@workahol]

"Oh hi, Mark."

[@keenankomoto44]

Really like the added note to specify that the Mark IX was not a... let's just say a 1939 German military watch.

[@YoureTerrific]

IWC did make watches for the Luftwaffe, but this was not one of them.

[@anmolshrivastava8748]

Hey have a look at Bangalore Watch Company Mech 1 black editon ❤

[@gordonbexell7837]

to all iwc fans go and watch the movie Vanila sky. its opening is all i can think of !

[@michalechowdary]

Good one

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@logwind]

I forgot how pretty the Mark XVI was.

[@arturgarncarz3631]

Good looking watches but ETA for 6k?!?

[@jeanlefranc3817]

This Mark X is a looker.

[@YoureTerrific]

Absolutely

[@runrin_]

do this with submariners next :p

[@YoureTerrific]

Would love to!

[@bigbodykarate6403]

i want the new IWC big pilot in blue with bracelet sooooo bad , im ready to trade in my first born for it .

[@Lavi-Aemilia-Astori]

I think IWC could make the best flieger if they could remove the date window

[@fefkvjeef]

Can i help you, and therefore myself, with pronouncing the German word 'Uhr'. It's an 'ooo' sound. Not 'uh' with an 'r' at the end. So, ooohr in American English will sound mostly, somewhat, well at least way more like Uhr in German. Think of the sound an owl makes but shorter, added by an 'r' at the end. Please try, I believe in you :)

[@benb1131]

Are you sure it’s not ‘waterproof wrist watch’

[@YoureTerrific]

Yes www.acollectedman.com/blogs/journal/59621443-the-story-of-the-dirty-dozen-the-first-wristwatches-specially-commissioned-for-the-british-army

[@Zoetstok]

Wuhan, I see what you did there.

[@stephen9609]

meh... I've always thought it was a pretty boring design that hasn't changed much throughout the years

[@robertoportugal4659]

Great video! Thank you
