Total black. The IWC Pilot’s Watch TOP GUN family expands with two new models in Ceratanium®, an innovative and revolutionary material based on a special titanium alloy developed in Schaffhausen over five years. Ceratanium®, in an elegant matt jet black color, in addition to combining the structural integrity of titanium with the scratch resistance typical of ceramic, is lighter than steel, is gentle on the skin and very resistant to corrosion. IWC first used this material in 2017 for the case of the Aquatimer Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month Edition “50 Years Aquatimer”. The two new 2021 models are the Big Pilot’s Watch Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Ceratanium (150 pieces per year), the first IWC watch with a Ceratanium® bracelet and the Pilot’s Watch Timezoner TOP GUN Ceratanium, the first TOP GUN model with the Timezoner® complication ( 500 specimens per year). Recall that these timepieces owe their name to the legendary Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor Program, a particularly stringent course employed by the US Navy to train its elite pilots.
Between the two models I would like to show you in more detail the fake IWC Pilot’s Watch Timezoner TOP GUN Ceratanium (Ref. IW395505) since it is the first TOP GUN model with the Timezoner® complication that allows you to easily switch from one time zone to another simply by pressing and turning the bezel. The hour hand, the 24-hour indication and the date will advance or retreat in increments of one hour. This also applies to changing the date without losing even a second. Its Ceratanium® case (46 mm x 15.1 mm) houses the IWC-manufactured caliber 82760 (Pellaton automatic winding system, 28,800 alt / hour, date, central seconds with stop device, Timezoner® function for setting of another time zone via the rotating bezel, 24-hour indication for the Worldtimer function, 60-hour power reserve) which can be admired through the smoked sapphire crystal caseback. The ring of 24 cities, each representing an international time zone, is instead made of ceramic. On the black dial, protected by convex and anti-reflective sapphire crystal on both sides, the numbers are printed in gray. Of these, the numbers 3, 6, 9 and 12 are coated with luminescent material. The replica watches uk, water resistant to 6 bar, is secured to the wrist with a black rubber strap with fabric insert and pin buckle.
