IWC LEWIS HAMILTON BIG PILOTS WATCH PERPETUAL CALENDAR EDITION

THE MAKINGS OF A CHAMPION
The pilots watch issued as a limited edition reflects the personality of Lewis Hamilton, the brands ambassador, with a highly-precise spirit and an incredibly-unique style.
His already rather impressive track record continues to grow. Six-time Formula 1 World Champion, legendary record-holder for the most pole positions in qualifying rounds, top of the 2019 Championship rankings�� Lewis Hamiltons performances set the ultimate standard, placing him at the top of the motor sports elite. Although his dexterity behind the wheel is definitely not a matter of debate, the British racing driver also appears to have personal chemistry with the world of fashion and design. As such, IWC invited him to design a timepiece in line with his wishes and his style. The result is the Lewis Hamilton Big Pilots Watch Perpetual Calendar Edition, a bespoke benchmark with practical features geared to precision. An ample 46.5 mm-diameter case fashioned in black zirconium oxide ceramic hosting a red-gold caseback protects a wine-colored dial. Face-side, in addition to the large hour and minute hands, the watch displays the date, the day of the week, the month and a 4-digit year and invites to discover the Moons phases for both hemispheres.
All time data is driven by the 52615 caliber. This automatic movement grants the watch a great power reserve, once totally wound up, of some 168 hours, i.e. 7 days, thanks to the inclusion of two barrels. The power remaining features in an indicator set at 3 oclock. This mechanism is also equipped with a small-second stop system to set the time precisely.
This 100-piece limited edition is complemented by a matching Bordeaux textile strap.
