Equipped with IWC’s renowned Pellaton winding system reinforced with ceramic components, the calibre delivers an outstanding 7-day power reserve, making it one of the most technically impressive movements in its category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe movement is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, allowing appreciation of the beautiful finishing and engineering behind one of IWC’s flagship calibres. The combination of the large movement architecture and the functional pilot-watch design creates a perfect balance between technical watchmaking and everyday practicality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe substantial stainless steel case offers excellent wrist presence while remaining surprisingly comfortable thanks to the curved lugs and balanced proportions.
