Inspired by the flight suits of naval aviators and the vast forests they fly over, Big Pilot’s Watch Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Woodland’s 46.5mm green ceramic case is both lightweight and highly durable. For the first time, IWC have crafted a full-ceramic bracelet, meticulously assembled from 38 components and engineered for exceptional comfort. Complementing the case, the crown and case back ring are made of Ceratanium®, a unique alloy combining the strength of titanium with ceramic’s scratch resistance. Beyond its bold aesthetics, the watch houses IWC’s legendary perpetual calendar, which tracks the date, month, and leap years, requiring no adjustment until 2100. The Double Moon display accurately depicts the moon phase for both hemispheres, deviating by just one day every 577.5 years. At its core, the IWC-manufactured 52616 calibre delivers a seven-day power reserve, visible through a tinted sapphire caseback.

About the IWC Pilot’s Watches Collection
The IWC Pilot's Watches is a collection of dependable timepieces designed for the cockpit. However, with an ultra-chic aesthetic, it is no surprise that it ventured out of the aviation world and landed on the wrists of watch collectors around the globe. Its journey began in 1936 with the Special Pilot's Watch and progressed into the 1940s with iconic models like the Big Pilot's Watch Calibre 52, designed for the German military and the Navigator's Wristwatch Mark 11 for the British Royal Air Force. These watches became a top choice amongst the best militaries in the world primarily due to IWC being an early adopter of innovative materials, mechanisms, and functionality. And it's this spirit that has made the Pilot's Watches one of the most sought-after timepieces throughout watchmaking history and even more today.
Design And Features
With a form aimed at achieving functionality, IWC Pilot's Watches bring the best of both worlds. These watches gained early attention for their large round case and bold sans-serif Arabic numeral hour markers, choices that delivered high legibility. Throughout the journey of over 80 years, the design signatures of the Pilot's Watches have remained unchanged. An IWC Pilot's Watch is easily recognisable by its distinctive onion-shaped crown, unique 12 o'clock marker, and minimalist dial. Modern Pilot's Watches have enhanced their functional aspects by incorporating additional complications such as perpetual calendars, minute repeaters, tourbillons, and more. Also mechanically, Pilot's watches have always run on robust movements, which IWC are renowned for, offering high precision and excellent details like a whopping seven-day power reserve.
