IWC SCHAFFHAUSEN Big Pilot's Automatic 46.2mm Stainless Steel and Leather Watch, Ref. No. IW501015

Early 'observation watches' from the 1930s were simple in that they packed three hands against a dark dial inside a large case, which naturally made for great legibility. IWC SCHAFFHAUSEN's latest 'Big Pilot's' model stays true to those of yesteryear but scales down the original 55mm proportions to 46.2mm. Made from stainless steel with a 'Racing Green' face, it employs an in-house automatic 52110 calibre and stores an impressive 7-day power reserve. The soft-iron inner case protects against magnetic fields, so accuracy never wavers.
