A rare IWC Pilot's watch on it's 10th Anniversary
Thu, 07 February 2013 19:44
Created for the 125th Anniversary of Wempe in 2003, the Ref 3757-01 might be the most perfect complicated and almost affordable, yet complicated pilot's watch that IWC ever created. Done in steel and just 50 pieces, this perpetual calendar chronograph flies under the radar. Maybe it is because all 50 pieces were sold out before they were produced or simply, it looks, at first glance just like any another IWC pilot's 42mm chronograph. It is powered by a heavily modified Valjoux 7750 that IWC calls the 79261. The same caliber was used in the GST perpetual as the DaVinci Kurt Klaus
It also has possibly the nicest sky, gold moon and stars ever produced by IWC. Plus it comes in a highly polished gold letter inlaid presentation box.
why does the TZ spell checker want to turn chrono into "chromo"?
