Aviation and watch industry share an extraordinary bond. Some of the best watches in the world were initially created for pilots. They are synonymous with macho spirit, an active lifestyle and the pulse of an adventurer. Aviator watches are now designed with the well-heeled in mind, not exclusively for pilots.

The Big Pilot from IWC Schaffhausen is a 46.2 mm automatic mechanical watch. Its popularity has steadily increased over the years and the older versions are now coveted collector’s items. Recently the brand unveiled limited numbers of a special edition of this design, exclusively for the North American market. The basic color theme of the watch is blue and black, and looks as atmospheric as a day sky superimposed over dark night. This night and day imagery is worked into the hands and markers as well. While the dial is inky, the Arabic numeral hour markers are outlined in a pleasing blue. The hands are also blue in shade with black borders.

Other features include a date disc, 168 hr power reserve similar to the Portuguese watch, and a reserve indicator. A magnificent in-house automatic Caliber, IWC 51111, powers the workings of the watch. The signature crown in turnip-style is also in place.

Launched for the North American watch lovers these watches will be sold in the brand’s outlets in the continent. Only few are offered, so if you have plans for one, don’t hesitate. Take the plunge! The regular steel model is usually priced at 10,000 American Dollars. So this exclusive edition is expected to cost a bit more!

If spending thousands of dollars is not your idea of monetary discretion, then go for IWC replica. These faithful imitations have the look and feel of luxury, but in fact cost only a fraction of the original. The features are brilliant and the materials are of excellent quality. A team of seasoned watch makers contribute their skill and creativity to bring you great IWC replica watches. Make use of the opportunity now!
