IWC Pilot’s Replica Watch Chronograph 41 in Bronze and Blue

The Low-Down

By virtue of its history, tough engineering and design finesse, IWC is deservedly among the first names that come to mind when considering a pilot’s watch. Short of strapping on an actual cockpit instrument, the aesthetics of an IWC pilot’s replica watch comes closest to evoking the romance of aviation, refined for the wrist. IWC has served up an amazing array of pilot’s watches sporting a most comprehensive range of materials, complications, sizes, etc.

For purists, IWC has produced Big Pilot watches descended from the saucer-sized knee clocks of aviation lore; concessions have also been made to present-day practicalities and sensibilities in the smaller case sizes filtering into its collections, an example of which being the IWC Pilot’s Replica Watch Chronograph 41 which was introduced last year with 41mm case size to complement its 43mm siblings; and there has been a steady broadening of complications, from the requisite chronograph to perpetual calendars and world timers.

Besides a warm glow that isn’t gold, bronze will generate a patina over time, meaning that each watch will be unique, patterned after the life of the wearer. Cheap IWC Replica in Bronze addresses some of the issues with bronze by including aluminium and iron in the alloy mix that achieves 50 per cent greater hardness over standard bronze, and also with an eye to biocompatibility. The blue dial and gold-plated hands matched with a blue textile strap that can be readily swapped without tools.

The crystal caseback reveals the IWC-manufactured Caliber 69385, a self-winding chronograph movement actuated by a traditional column wheel, with efficient bi-directional winding and a power reserve of 46 hours. IWC Replica Watches Bronze is not quite an “aviation” metal, more nautical than aerospace; but it does plug a space for a warm-hued watch without the exorbitant price that gold in any shade commands. Bronze is great in principle and it is noteworthy that IWC is making it pleasant in practice, by using a brew that is kind on the skin, and hardened to better hold its edge. It also goes very well with blue.

The Steel IWC Big Pilot Quality Replica Watch

IWC Big Pilot Annual Calendar “Le Petit Prince” IW502710

While the IWC Replica Watches are characterised by their warm colours and tobacco brown dials, the Petit Prince models display midnight-blue dials, stylised numerals and a certain vintage vibe. Today, the collection is enlarged with the new Big Pilot Annual Calendar Le Petit Prince IW502710, which is now available in stainless steel.

The Annual Calendar complication appeared first at IWC in 2015, within the Portugieser collection. And it has been within the Pilot’s Quality Replica Watch range since 2016.

Today, it’s a pretty cool watch that we’re looking at, the latest edition of the IWC Big Pilot’s Exact Replica Watch Annual Calendar in a Petit Prince attire, and now in a stainless steel case. Visually, there’s no doubt that this new reference IW502710 is a Big Pilot with an oversized 46.2mm case.

Yes, it’s large and thick – over 15mm – but that’s the whole concept of this collection. The case, in steel, is mostly finished with brushed surfaces, with some polished accents on the Cheap IWC Replica bezel and on the signature diamond-shaped crown. It features sapphire crystals on both sides and is water-resistant to 60 metres.

The dial of this new Big Pilot’s Watch Annual Calendar has all the characteristic traits of the Petit Prince collection. This means a sunray-brushed dial in midnight blue and the stylised, slightly Art Deco Arabic numerals found on all watches of this range.

Note that these markers are not applied here, but printed on the dial. All the elements of the dial are generously covered in white Super-LumiNova.

Another important feature of this new IWC Replica Watches sale is its calendar display. First of all, the month, date, and day are exposed in three separate semi-circular windows on the dial, bringing a very intuitive read of the indications.

Powering this oversized and bold Big Pilot Annual Calendar Le Petit Prince IW502710 is the automatic calibre 52850, made in-house by IWC. This movement is as large as the watch housing it and boasts a solid 7-day power reserve when fully wound.

It also features the automatic winding system developed by Albert Pellaton. Through the Replica Watches China sapphire caseback, it reveals a nice architecture with opened bridges and, something unique to this edition, a specific rotor that takes the shape of the Little Prince on his asteroid B-612.

The IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar Replica sale

The familiarity of the new watch is that the large surface of the dial is a perfect canvas on which all the instructions of the perpetual calendar can be drawn. In particular, IWC Replica decided to use the “Little Prince” blue as the background and transparent white to paint most of the details.

The automatic movement adopts the Bieleton winding system and is equipped with wear-resistant ceramic parts, which can be seen through the sapphire glass case back. It’s not that you want to check it often, because once you wear the IWC Bi​​g Pilot Perpetual Calendar Replica on your wrist, you don’t want to take it off. Also because it is a very suitable watch.

When you forget the concept of a 577-year-old micro-mechanical perpetual calendar that can be worn on your wrist, you will feel incredible. I now know why so many watch lovers are obsessed with “QP”.

The blue IWC Fake Watches that was originally used for the different “Le Petit Prince” models appeared on the new Big Pilot’s Watch 43 and its larger and more complex sibling models. It is the kind that will not be overlooked and a lot of blue.
