What about this one? IWC Portuguese Perpetual, white gold black dial. Limited edition for Zegg & Cerlati. Only eleven made... Kind regards, Cinq Cinq, VERY nice choice!!!

So what do one of these beauties retail for? I REALLY like the look... Hey arielr22, I think (and I'm sure Wilfreb can confirm) this watch is still in the concept phase & isn't actually available to the public yet. So I don't think they have an MSRP (unless they've determined a range).

ScottD: I beleive you are correct. I think Wilfreb posted this a while back stating it was concept and not much more information was available.

After thinking this over since the thread started, I've decided my grail would be a Breguet classic three-hander (no date) with the Roman numerals, blued Breguet hands, white guilloche dial face, in yellow gold with a black croc strap.

I used to have "grails" I even got a couple of them. This was a grail And once I got it I needed another so I got this The problem with grails is that once you get them they cease to become grails Case in point is my 3rd "so called grail" Grails only exist in the mind.

The problem Jeff, is that you are not reaching high enough!

The problem Jeff, is that you are not reaching high enough! I would if I could but I can't so I shan't.That is why I don't go for Boscoe's definition of a "grail." Just like the Holy Grail, a grail watch should be the ultimate, next to impossible watch you wish to obtain more than anything... If you can obtain the watch without robbing a bank or selling one of your kidneys, then it's not a grail; it's just another watch!

Well, I guess I have Grails of the Moment - because I know once I get it, there will be another. And I actually believe there's nothing I can't attain/acquire if I really want it bad enough.

If you can obtain the watch without robbing a bank or selling one of your kidneys, What's the going rate for a relatively healthy kidney??

If you can obtain the watch without robbing a bank or selling one of your kidneys, Without selling one?!?! Why not - you have a spare....
