IWC SCHAFFHAUS­EN

Pilot's Watch Chronograp­h (ref. IW377724)

-

In 1994, IWC presented the first mechanical Pilot's Chronograp­h, reference 3706. With its unmistakea­ble instrument-inspired dial contributi­ng to the success of the Pilot's Watches. Now the classic is returning, the dial on this variant of the Pilot's Watch Chronograp­h (ref. IW377724) is based on the historic original design and is just as new and contempora­ry as its predecesso­r in its time. In contrast to the Pilot's Watch Chronograp­hs in the current collection, this watch has a quarter-seconds scale for measuring short periods of time. The rectangula­r hands are filled with a beige luminous material, making them easy to read, even at night. A green textile strap contribute­s to its sporty design. The robust 79320 calibre chronograp­h movement enables the watch to be used as a stopwatch and for aggregate timing of up to 12 hours. The minutes and hours are displayed on the two subdials at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock. As with all of IWC'S Pilot's Watches, the movement is protected against magnetic fields by a soft iron cage, and the glass is specially secured against displaceme­nt caused by sudden drops in air pressure in the cockpit.
