IWC SCHAFFHAUSEN PILOT’S CHRONOGRAPH 41MM TOP GUN CERAMIC
Swiss luxury watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen has expanded its TOP GUN series by presenting its first 41mm Pilot Chronographs in ceramic.
IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41mm TOP GUN Black Ceramic
The new IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN (ref. IW389401) is the brand’s first 41mm Pilot’s Chronograph with a “Jet Black” black zirconium oxide ceramic case.
Its “Jet Black” ceramic, inspired by the technical components of supersonic jets, has been the signature material of IWC TOP GUN since the line was established in 2007.
A black dial and a black rubber strap complement the pitch-black ceramic case. Here, too, contrasting luminescent elements on the black hands and the dial enhance readability, even in the most challenging conditions. The titanium pushers and case back complement the sporty design.
The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN is available through IWC boutiques, authorised retail partners, or online at IWC.com.
IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN “Oceana”
The second model, IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN “Oceana” (ref. 389404) features a case made of blue ceramic.
Back in 2022, IWC introduced a collection of Pilot’s Watches in colored ceramic. These watches feature striking new shades developed in collaboration with Pantone
. It consisted of chronographs such as IWC Lake Tahoe white & IWC Woodland green.
Created in collaboration with Pantone
, the new ceramic color “Oceana” takes inspiration from the U.S. Navy’s blue overalls. In addition, the chronograph features a blue dial and a matching blue rubber strap with a denim finish textile inlay.
Luminescence on the black hands and on the dial ensures excellent readability, even at night. The pushers and the case back are made of lightweight titanium.
The integrated IWC EasX-CHANGE
system makes it possible to exchange the strap quickly and easily without needing additional tools.
The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN “Oceana” is available through selected IWC boutiques.
Unveiled at the Watches and Wonders 2023 exhibition in Geneva, both chronographs house the IWC 69380 calibre, an in-house manufactured self-winding mechanical movement that combines robustness, reliability, and durability.
The chronograph minute register is placed directly at 12 o’clock to enhance readability. The vertical dial layout is the result of IWC’s functional design approach and has become a distinguishing feature of the company’s chronographs.
Both new models also feature a soft-iron inner case to protect their movements from the effects of magnetic fields. The front glasses are specially secured to withstand sudden drops in air pressure in the cockpit. Moreover, both timepieces are water resistant to 100 meters/10 bar.
In addition, the timepieces are eligible for registration under the My IWC care program, benefitting from a 6-year extension to the standard 2-year International Limited Warranty.
