I.W.C IWC Pilot's Watches

When the Swiss manufacturer IWC launched the first large pilot's watch for military use in 1940, it laid the foundation for a decades-long success story. Tradition, high-quality precision even under extreme conditions and legendary cockpit-style design are the guarantees of success for the IWC brand's pilot's watches. The mechanical men's watch is designed precisely for the needs of fighter jets and is equally unaffected by extremely high acceleration, pressure drops and magnetic fields. Aside from professional use in the air force, etc., IWC's large pilot's watches are also a popular timepiece outside the cockpit for men who value class but are also characterized by an adventurous and pioneering spirit.

State-of-the-art technology, authentic style

As luxury watches from IWC, the Large Pilot's Watches are characterized by excellent watch technology and reduced understatement in design. The IWC Large Pilot's Watches' answer to the extreme conditions in fighter jets is highly durable materials made of titanium, ceramic and stainless steel, as well as an inner case made of resistant soft iron to protect against magnetic fields. The sophisticated Pellaton winding mechanism for a 7-day power reserve and a power reserve indicator are also part of the exclusive features of the IWC Pilot's Watches. In terms of design, the Swiss watch manufacturer's Large Pilot's Watch series is once again based on the historical pilot's look from the first half of the 20th century. Optimal readability is typical of the timeless, simple cockpit design: on a dark background in black, brown and gray tones, the bright hands and numerals that glow in the dark are reminiscent of the on-board instruments in the cockpit. Another special feature of IWC's pilot's watches is the bracelet: the extra-long straps made of calf or crocodile leather allow the watch to be worn over (pilot's) clothing. Originally with a case diameter of an impressive 55 mm, the IWC Large Pilot's Watch is now also produced in more discreet sizes.

In addition to the Big Pilot's Watch, the IWC brand's pilot's watch series also includes the Mark XVIII pilot's watch and the Chronograph pilot's watch.

The Big Pilot's Watch from the Edition Classic, for example, can be purchased in three different versions. Differences can be found in the watch diameters, materials and functions as well as in the design and edition of the luxury watches. The case of the Big Pilot's Watch Top Gun is made of black ceramic, while the case of the Big Pilot's Watch Classic Heritage Watch 55 is made of titanium. The Big Pilot's Watch Annual Calendar Edition "Le Petit Prince" has a case made of 18 carat red gold and a transparent case back with sapphire glass on the back, an annual calendar and a midnight blue dial.

Luxury watches from IWC - Swiss watch manufacturer with American roots

The initials of IWC stand for the International Watch Company. However, the traditional Swiss company was founded in 1868 by an American citizen. The Boston engineer and watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones initially manufactured his quality watches from Switzerland for the American market. At the end of the 19th century, a Swiss entrepreneur brought the watch manufacturer to economic success. The Big Pilot's Watch was first manufactured by IWC in 1940 and today enjoys cult status: Hollywood stars such as Tarantino, Schwarzenegger and Bradley Cooper effectively express their masculinity and class with the Big Pilot.
