IWC Pilot’s Watches
IWC is committed to continuing pioneering horological innovations, as the brand always looks to the future. IWC Pilot’s Watches are renowned for their cockpit-instrument aesthetic, as well as for their unmatched precision and superb technology. For more than 80 years, this prestigious collection has been favoured by both pilots and watch enthusiasts alike, who appreciate the precision engineering, as well as attention to detail, used in each model.
This range is characterised by distinctive features which not only allows it to stand apart in the horology world, but it also ensures that these timepieces are among the best when it comes to performance.
Some of the design highlights of the collection include a large conical crown, which is reminiscent of the pioneering days of aviation; the size of the crown makes it easier to grip and set even when a pilot is wearing thick gloves and a padded flight suit. Some of the watches in the collection also come with luminescent displays for increased visibility, even in adverse conditions – the dials are also stripped back to the bare essentials, which further improves this visibility.
The triangular index at 12 o’clock is also a famous feature found in the watches of this range. This design choice allows pilots to quickly recognise the position of the hands and the time with a mere glance, especially with the two dots on either side of the triangle, which contributes to readability.
Style and functionality work together flawlessly in this collection, with the classic, yet forward-thinking and contemporary, timepieces boasting the finest materials and the most sophisticated of complications – perfect for even the most demanding of watch aficionados.
