This is the Big Pilot that started it all—pure, traditional, and increasingly rare to find as a complete, documented set. Key Details • Reference: IW5002 • Movement: Calibre 5011, 7-Day Automatic • Crown: Original Fish Crown (not the later Probus crown) • Service: Factory serviced by IWC in December 2020 (documentation included) • Set: Complete set including original large wooden presentation box, warranty booklet, manuals, and original 2004 purchase receipt from Deutsch & Deutsch • Straps: New OEM strap purchased December 2020. Original strap included as well. Condition The watch itself presents beautifully. The case is clean with honest, minimal signs of wear consistent with light use. The dial, hands, and crystal are in excellent condition, and the movement runs smoothly with strong power reserve following its 2020 IWC service. The original wooden presentation box is included and shows typical age-related wear to the inner leatherette lining (common for 5002 boxes from this era). This does not affect functionality and is expected for collectors familiar with early Big Pilot packaging. Accompanied by the original sales receipt, manuals, and IWC service documentation—this is a rare opportunity to acquire a complete, historically correct 5002 with the most collectible configuration. Why This 5002 Is Special • The 5002 represents the first modern Big Pilot and is considered by many collectors to be the purest design. • The fish crown is increasingly scarce and highly desirable. • A genuine full set with documentation significantly enhances collectability. • A recent factory service (2020) provides peace of mind and mechanical reliability.
