Philip Franke, Brand Manager at IWC Schaffhausen Switzerland, said that new watches are true embodiment of Swiss precision and technical perfection, and truly worthy of the excellence of these pilots. This is obvious from the first glance on the watches, which reveals grey technical design, clear easy to read dial and crisp luminous hands and time markers. The functionality is further enhanced by the small seconds counter with stop function, date display and the day of the week. The central chronograph hand is finished with a counter tip representing a red air fighter - Northrop F-5E Tiger II of the Patrouille Suisse aerobatics team.
The watch is made in stainless steel and boasts masculine proportions of 42mm x 14.7mm. Its face is protected with anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass. A resolutely masculine design is completed with a black textile strap with grey stitching. On the case-back, the watch bears the inscription “Tribute To Patrouille Suisse” and the copy number (x/300), indicating this is a limited edition.
Pilot's Watch Chronograph Edition Patrouille Suisse is for sale exclusively for the Swiss market. It houses IWC caliber 79320 with 25 jewels, 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 44 hours. Water resistant to 60 meters.
