IWC Schaffhausen has been known and famous for its pilot watches since the 30s and 40s. Not only the technical details but also the designs reflect these pilot watches. Be it with the large crown (onion crown), the textile bracelet or the cockpit design. The new Pilot's Watch Mark XX arrives and expands the range of pilot's watches at IWC.
The 40 mm stainless steel case is held on a leather strap or a 5-link steel bracelet. The calfskin straps have a pin buckle, whereas the steel bracelets have a butterfly folding clasp. Both variants have the Easx-Change system, which enables the straps to be changed quickly without tools. The Pilot's Watch Mark XX have a screw-down crown and are waterproof up to 10 bar. Inside the pilot's watch beats the IWC Manufaktur automatic winding caliber 32111 with a power reserve of around 120 hours (around 5 days). Made in Switzerland with 164 components, a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4.0 Hz), 21 jewels, the Geneva stripe and perlage.
As the successor to the Mark 11, the Pilot's Watch Mark XX has been reduced in design and functionality, but it has not lost any of its pilot's watch charm. The unchanged cockpit design with the marking triangle at 12 o'clock, with the landmarks to the left and right of it, which also glow in the dark. Likewise, the specially secured front glass, which cannot come loose in the event of a sudden drop in pressure. The colored dial is completely clean except for the date window at 3 o'clock. The large rhodium-plated hands that glow at night and the large white numbers and indices provide a quick view of the time.
The IW328204 has the steel bracelet and a blue dial with white numbers and indices. A black dial with a steel bracelet has the reference IW328202. The green dial on the steel bracelet can be found under the number IW328206. With a brown leather strap, which has a white stitching and a pin buckle with a green dial, can be found with the reference IW328205. The IW328203 has a blue calfskin strap with white stitching and a pin buckle and a matching blue dial. The IW328201 is completely black with a black dial and a black tone-on-tone stitched leather strap with a pin buckle. Since all variants of the bracelets (steel and calfskin bracelet) have the Easx-Change system, the straps can be changed quickly and easily without additional tools. When reordering the leather straps, you should not forget to order the pin buckle if you only have a steel strap.
