IWC Pilot Chronograph IW389401

IWC Pilot's Chronograph 41 Top Gun IW389401 Watch

During tortuous manoeuvres involving supersonic jets like the F/A-18, pilots are subjected to high g forces. But also extended missions on aircraft carriers, where they are exposed to the humid, salt-bearing sea air, put an enormous strain on both personnel and material. The TOP GUN Chronograph was developed using robust and corrosion-resistant materials such as ceramic and titanium for the elite among the US Navy's jet pilots. For the first time ever, IWC has equipped this classic with an in-house movement from the 69000-calibre family. Apart from its stopwatch function, the IWC-manufactured 69380 calibre also has displays for the day and date. The red small seconds hand at "6 o'clock" provides a striking colourful highlight on the black dial. The case is made of-non-reflective black zirconium oxide ceramic, the back of the case from titanium. | Brand | IWC | | Collection/Family | Pilot's | | Model Number | IW389401 | | Year of Manufacture | 2023 | | Preowned Condition | Excellent | | Movement | Automatic | | Box | Yes | | Papers | Yes | | Case Diameter | 41.9mm | | Case Material | Ceramic | | Numeral Style | Arabic | | Dial Colour | Black | | Strap Colour | Black | | Strap Material | Rubber | | Water Resistance | 100m | | PRAGNELL REFERENCE | 2365806 |
