- A little bit about the IWC Mark XVIII pilot watch (IW327015/IW327011) on a bracelet and why it's such a good watch *for me*. The IWC Mark 18.

Most underrated watch channel on youtube
Very true.
For me...
(In 2023) Not anymore! Thankfully.
Man, every watch should have that micro adjust. That's brilliant.
If grand Seiko did it on more of there lines I think they would sell a lot more.
I had the chrono version of this watch, and it's true, that feature and the "hidden" button are truly incredible.
too bad the bracelet costs an extra grand like the glashutte original seaQ bracelet and the JLC Polaris bracelet
I have a Perrelet Chrono which has pretty much exactly the same thing. Frankly, I didn't use this feature very much
I've pretty much seen every IWC Mark XVIII video out there on youtube, this is by far the best video for anyone interested in buying one, well done mate! Thank you
+1
Agreed fantastic
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
@Gavin Joel instablaster ;)
@Vivaan Avery Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out now.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Picked up a Mark XVIII on the black leather strap first day of 2021. It's just one of those watches that goes with almost anything. Incredibly legible and truly timeless. I really enjoy it's simplicity and wearability.
This is a incredible watch. It looks so simple and solid. The strap looks so nice.
My favorite watch channel
This is literally the best watch review I ever watched. Quality, knowledge, application and actual useable information and shots (on wrist). Thanks and 100% purchasing this!
I love my Mark XVIIII Heritage. I don’t care if it has a modified Sallita movement. It’s a simple and honest timepiece!
After watching this video multiple times, I had to get one for myself to check out. I definitely didn't expect to like it as much as I do. The Mark XVIII on bracelet is amazing, a very underrated watch!!
The best IWC Mark VIII review on RUclips. A great channel, great content, for me. Congrats! Ps: I own one on leather strap, somehow regret not buying the bracelet version. I’m in love with my IWC.
I always circle back to this video. One of my favorites.
Been on my list for a long bit now. Now that it is discontinued I discovered this video. The micro adjustment… I’m now fully sold. Thank you.
This is a great review. It inspired me to look into the brand more and has just resulted in myself picking up a 2015 Mark XVII on the awesome bracelet at 50% off original RRP. I’m very pleased with the purchase and it’s just right ... for me 👌👍
What a great watch!!! The bracelet looks amazing!
I love that watch as well.
Great review, thanks for posting. The AR on the dome crystal appears a blue hue on sunny days. That’s perfection, for me.
Fantastic video, I’m in 100 percent agreement with your opinion. An old dude I’ve owned many exclusive watches, and fortunate to have a nice collection to this day. The IWC Mark XVIII is my favorite, the exact configuration as yours and doubtless the most comfortable, legible, and wearable for any situation. It competes with some heady and far more expensive competition from within my collection. It’s on my wrist as this is written which speaks volumes. So wonderful to see a bit of IWC, specifically aimed at the Mark XVIII, love for a change. Lots of IWC hate on the net and I’ve grown weary of trying to champion and or defend it; with this video I can and will stand down. If asked which watch I’d keep if I could keep but 1 (horrendously daunting ask for a serious collector) the choice would come down to my Mark XVIII like yours or my Mark XVIII Laureus black ceramic with the blue dial. That choice, “for me”’, would be extremely perplexing, IWC’s superlative bracelet probably solidifying the decision. The Mark XVIII’s are truly that good “for me” and you. Thanks for sharing!!! Ciao.
Love it!! I retire in 10 months and I have two, maybe three contenders as a present to myself!! This is one of them, and yes ... its a beautiful bracelet and I totally see why you chose this over the Spitfire. Great Vid as always ....
That's funny! I'm buying this watch in about 10 months and as a present to myself for having the balls to buy this piece I am retiring!
This is a terrific video and review. Your passion for the Mark XVIII really shines through! And I agree. It is a fantastic watch - for you. And for me. Although I ended up with the Heritage, in titanium with the faux patina. I looked at all of them. And also tried the 39mm Spitfire. Like you, I didn't care for the white date window. And I found the lugs a bit narrow, making the watch wear smaller than I would like. The Mark XVIII was the very last one I tried. I simply didn't think I would like the color/faux patina of the hands, markers and text. I was wrong! Soon as it was on my wrist, I knew it's the one for me! My wrist size is also 7 1/8 in. And the watch is a brilliant fit. If that amazing bracelet came also in titanium, I would buy it as well. And I would never hesitate to buy an IWC with either their modified ETA or Sellita movement! Craftsmanship is top notch! Thank you again for the wonderful video!
Agree ref the bracelet. Way better than the Rolex Oyster and I've owned both. In my view ... this is the best 'under the radar' luxury daily on the market.
Agree, I've owned a Rolex oyster and much rather have this iwc, I think it's one of the best all round watches you can buy today.
Great video! I love the Mark XVIII! Thanks for telling us about the bracelet. Great design. Amazing how no one seems to have covered that before.
I got the MARK17 LPP on bracelet. The Mark bracelets are 2nd to none. They are the absolute best. And the craftsmanship on these watches are impeccable.
If I were to add an IWC to the collection this would be the one. Thanks for sharing.
Your video is great and your argument for this watch is compelling.
So much so that I am likely to get one
I’ve tried it on and every point you make is accurate. For me
I tried this and the pilots chrono on yesterday. This on the blk leather is so awesomely masculine and understated. I'd buy on bracelet because of those great features u highlighted and order that fantastic blk strap as well. Such a killer peice.
Perfect addition to your collection Evan and fantastic video as always. Loved seeing all the details of this piece.
I love the simplicity of this watch. I’m in two minds as to whether it even needed a date. This is a great review
Thanks for opening my eyes to this brand. And very well produced video, too.
Great video. I own a Mark XVIII on a strap; extremely legible watch in really ALL lighting conditions. and not too flashy, understated, but beautiful in its simplicity. Even though my wrist is relatively small (16,5cm) it sits like a glove.
Wish I had known all these stuff concerning the bracelet -which according to some the best on the market-. It is a shame that even IWC boutique employees cannot sell this magnificent bracelet.
Brilliant... no one has ever mentioned how great that bracelet is. Currently considering the Le Petit Prince version...for me 😉
Beautiful watch
This is easily the classiest piece in your entire collection. If I were you, I’d sell off the rest, invest the profits, and retire a year or two earlier than planned.
I was thinking between IWC Pilot 36 vs Grand Seiko SBGR253 and stumbled upon this video of yours and I love how good-quality your video is. Your channel and Watchfinder are my new top 2 watch channels on RUclips now :)
Just discovered your channel today. I really like your relaxed, straight to the point style. I subscribe to dozens of watch channels and this is looking like one of the best. thanks and look forward to new material...even though i cant afford an IWC!
I have rarely seen a watch fitting to someone's wrist better than your IWC does to yours. Great choice! (for you)
Are you Bane?
Great piece, minimalistic elegance, simple , classy ( for me). Love that bracelet, yes they should market/ promote that more I was not aware of that until I watched your video. 100 meters water resistance would have been better, but I guess if you can swim and snorkel with it , it should be fine. I added this to my wish list. Let’s see which one I end up buying first from that list....Congratulations , I think it truly is one of the best pieces in your collection !
I appreciated your way of presenting your reasons and deciding for The IWC Mark XVII time piece.
Excellent presentation
Amazing video! I’ve always wanted an IWC, but the details about the bracelet have me lusting for this watch now more than ever!
Hey, keep doing what you do! I love your narrating style and your subtle humour. Your videos are very pleasing to watch.
Spectacular mention on that 1mm-incremental adjustability of the bracelet, with its function hiding in plain (and elegant) sight!
Wow. The bracelet features are Easter eggs! I am absolutely sold. I recently moved to a place where wearing anything else from my collection is prohibited (theft) and I was looking for something that would fly under the radar that would still mesmerize me. This is the one! The hunt begins.
was after a laco augsberg, now saving for this.
Great video production, very informative too. I got the Mark XVIII on a strap last month and am loving it!
Thanks for highlighting the bracelet! I had no idea it had those features, and is really making me think about the bracelet option rather than the strap
The blue dial, make it looks beautiful from a pure design.
Amaizng video, for me! I love the dedication and production.
That bracelet is unbelievable!
That is a really cool piece, thank you for the presentation. I'm torn between the Tudor Black Bay 36mm black, Omega Railmaster 57 Trilogy and now this bad boy. I just found out that it's also available in a 36mm case size. This will really make a decision for me even more difficult. Thanks again a keep up the great work and those superb videos coming.
It is a beautiful watch indeed. I have a Omega Aquaterra Seamaster 39mm with blue face and a Bell & Ross BR01-93 GMT. The fist one is small and simply elegant, the second one is big and bulky. Both fits my moods perfectly. After watching this video, I think I’ll go for a IWC Le Petit Prince Pilot but with a black leather strap… For me!!! The photography is this video is really original and impressive. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome presentation of an awesome watch! It really fits you well and I'm really looking forward to buying one soon!
The perfect watch for you. And me!
A really really good video, I’m new to IWC but if my ad give me a good deal I’m in the club soon.
Thanks again for superb video, I really agree with the “to me” part after owning a lot of the great ones out there. Keep time, be safe best regards Martin from Sweden
You're on point about the IWC bracelet. My Ingenieur has the same features and the finishing is superb. It's my favorite part of the watch.
Iwc and Carbon based lifeform as a background. Priceless ❤️
I tried one on last year. Am amazing piece.
Kudos for using Carbon Based Lifeforms soundtrack!
I agree about this watch. It seems to be one of these perfect "one watch" collections piece. Simple, understated, elegant. It doesn't scream "look at me" with the brushed finishing, but the quality of the finishing is clearly visible on close up. Also agree that ETA is not a minus. It keeps the cost of servicing down.
A really nice watch that you can get for a very decent price. I like the clean, sober look of the dial.
Shut up and take my subscription. Jokes aside, I love the way you address so many commonly held perceptions about watches in such an artful way, I’m glad I found your channel and look forward to digging deeper into past videos and future ones too!
Just discovered this channel. This is a really good looking watch and the bracelet appears to be top notch.
Thoughtful and well put together video.
Bought exactly the same watch the other day and completely thrilled with it. Elegant minimalism. My collection, like yours, consists mainly of watches with rotating bezels. Felt for some time that a change of direction was needed but never saw anything that hit the spot. The micro adjustment on the bracelet was not mentioned by the sales person. I only noticed it on closer inspection. Odd that IWC should spend the time and trouble to design this fantastic feature and keep it a secret.
Welcome to the world of IWC, and IWC "bracelets". My Mark XVI on bracelet is my longest owned piece, going into 9 years now. In fact I loved it so much, I also bought the Mark XVI Spitfire, also on bracelet. Also have the Ingenieur 3239, on bracelet!! :-))
Fantastic video! As a guy with 6.5 inch wrists, the Pilot 36 would be the better watch...for me! IWC really nail the sleek refined understated look which is why they really appeal to me
I like the way that it's very understated but still a very strong timepiece.......for me.
Love that bracelet.
Thank you for this fair and balanced review.
Best watch channel.. for me.
Nice review.. I always liked it. Now I like it more, enough to own it. Had no clue about that great bracelet adjustment. Thank You...
It is a gorgeous time piece and a great every das watch for a gentleman! Congrats ,mate!
That bracelet with the micro-adjustment feature sold me too in the end (MK XVIII)- but I don't think that it was designed by IWC because luxury brands like A.Lange & Söhne and Glashütte Original (you'll find more when you look close enough...) use the exact same mechanism. It must come from a third party supplier...
you love that fine watch its the only thing that matters and once in a while someone appreciating the love and quality of that watch makes u even more happy .. yes btw i m leaning towards the same watch but with spitfire logo 2019
Love this thing…. For me
This is an hell of a video an hell of a watch and an hell of opinion/analysis! Congrats!
Great video! Thanks. I'm awaiting delivery of my Mark XVIII Le Petit Prince in two days; can't wait.
That watch looks so good on your wrist, which is just the right size to show it off. My own wrist is a bit thinner, and the watch does look different on it.
Welp, you just "sold" *me* on this watch. Never would have paid this much mind if not for this video.
Great video! Can’t believe I haven’t heard about that micro adjust bracelet! Everyone goes on that Rolex is unique with its micro adjust bracelets and this is arguably executed even better! Thanks 😊
I saw a video of yours I liked and subscribed on a whim. Glad I did. Excellent video, thanks. FOR ME, I would have opted for the Sinn 856 non UTC. More tech at a lower price, but can see why people would go with your choice. Bracelet's amazing.
One of your best videos. That and the Cartier Santos.
best video about mark and all watches
Man this is a GREAT review. I have the XVIII Tribute to XI and love it. I’m going to need to find a bracelet now! I’m also happy mine has a Sellita movement for the same reason you appreciated the ETA.
I have this watch! Well, the blue version. The bracelet makes it that much more pleasing. I bought it just as the pandemic was starting. I cannot get it off the bracelet but that’s another story.
Superb review, Evan! Makes me miss my LPP ;) had no idea about the quick adjustment of the bracelet!
I wear a mark xv everyday and you definitely made the right choice with this one over the spitfire
Its a great watch, i love the IWC Mark XVIII Modells. Great Video!
I put a white mark 18 on that bracelet off the back of this review i absolutly love it. Thank you.
Amazing combo
That's a great micro adjust. Awesome video.
I have that in the 36mm version..absolutely lovin it
What a great video! Loved it and the Mark 18 is a fine watch. I’ve got a Le Petite Prince Pilots Chrono with the bracelet and leather strap.
Everytime I get my sights locked on a watch, your channel has it covered. Get out of my head.
I tought that is a Spitfire. Junkers !!! Cool! My great uncle worked at Junkers. I probably buy one
Nice video and beautiful watch. Well done!
by far the best review presentation of the mark xviii so glad to see someone finally talking about the amazing bracelet, what is your wrist size/ length? I'd go to an AD but i''m sadly stuck comparing wrist sizes for refrence...
This is an amazing channel. FOR ME.
And FOR MANY OTHERS. 🤪
Nicely done video. Hope you enjoy your watch. I love it aswell
Top video, for me this is one of the best all round watches you can buy today, prefer it to the Rolex explorer. I have a longines spirit which is similar, field/pilot watches are my favourite.
"..with the right strap, I wouldn't hesitate to wear this with a suit... that is, If I ever go anywhere again." 🥺😭
Do this watch VS Rolex Explorer I
This is a brilliant video! I watched it numerous times. I'm currently thinking about my next watch purchase and an IWC Mark model is the top of my list. If I could create my dream Mark, it would be the case size of the Mark 16, the dial of the Mark 17... I guess the Mark 18 is a nice middle ground here, but I also love the 3D bracelet links of the Mark 16. We shall see ;-)
Nice review. I picked up the blue. I am ordering the bracelet, I think it needs that extra presence for my wrist, I find it a little too simple on a strap.
I'm new to your channel, and I find your style endearing. I'm just about to swap my Tudor GMT for a Mark XVIII on a bracelet... it'll be my first IWC.
omg the bracelet is so cool! Subscribed!!
New Mark XX just came out !!!!...... I never considered IWC, but your video makes it look absolutely stunning. Makes me wonder why I'm trying so hard to get a DateJust! The new model is meant to be available with a similar bracelet soon and has 120hr power reserve , 100m water proof..... if only they were 38mm cases, but maybe I need to try one on to see if I can make it work (wrist also 7 inches, so if you feel it's a great wear, then there is hope)
Edit. Bought the mark xvi. Totally love it
