SUMMARY

IWC’s rich history in aviation inspired the launch of the Big Pilot’s watch in 2002, with the model line becoming the archetypal watch in the company’s catalogue. This 2016 ‘Le Petit Prince’ edition takes all of the features that make the Big Pilot so distinctive, including the 46mm case and oversize diamond-shaped crown, and introduces a distinctive sunburst blue dial. WIth its large diameter and contrasting hands and numerals, the watch offers plenty of utility through its high levels of legibility. Internally, the calibre 52110 movement provides an impressive seven-day power reserve.
