Pretty impressive

IWC mastered all these problems and also managed to polish the material, which the technical literature at that time said was impossible.To eliminate thread replica Corum 10140.501810 watch erosion of titanium parts, IWC used nitride hardening (certainly before Ventura introduced their nitride hardened case), it three times as hard as hardened steel and 1000 times harder than untreated titanium.Pretty impressive, no? We think so, and that is why we are particularly happy that we found one of these original titanium IWC/Porsche Design collaborations.It is a titanium chronograph bearing the name "Porsche Design" and it is in fantastic condition.

Also, this ground breaking 1st of its kind replica Corum 02120.102001 watch is selling for only 795GBP.not a bad deal considering the feats of engineering behind it (and not to mention the IWC guts inside).Click here to see this original IWC/Porsche Design chronograph in Titanium, the first ever of its kind.

Earlier today we received sad news of the first tragedy on K2 this climbing season. Italian skier Michele Fait fell to his death yesterday morning. Fait, an experienced mountaineer who had apparently already summited GII and Shisha Pangma and first attempted to climb K2 in 2004, was skiing down from Camp Two to the south-southeast ridge Corum 163-150-20-0F06-FR35R Watch with his Swedish climbing partner Fredrik Ericsson. The pair had reached an elevation of 6,450 meters, according to Glenn Mattsing, the editor of the Swedish edition of our magazine, who spoke with Ericsson via satellite phone earlier today.
