IWC Schaffhausen Pilot’s Watch Mark XX New Models with Silver-plated Dial

Swiss luxury watch brand IWC Schaffhausen celebrates the 75th anniversary of its Mark series and launches two new silver-plated dial versions of the Pilot’s Watch Mark XX. These new references complement the Mark XX colour line-up that already includes blue, green and black dials.

Created in 1948 by IWC Schaffhausen for the British Royal Air Force (RAF), Mark 11 was an instrument watch for pilots and naviagotrs. This debut model of the iconic Mark series set the benchmark for the technical features and functional instrument design of most modern pilot’s watches.

In 2022, IWC introduced the Pilot’s Watch Mark XX as the latest addition to the series. After presenting the model with blue, green and black dials, IWC is now expanding this range with two silver-plated dial versions. One is fitted with a black calfskin strap (Ref. IW328207), and the other features a high-grade 5-link stainless steel bracelet (Ref. IW328208).

The Pilot’s Watch Mark XX features a 40-millimetre stainless steel case, thoroughly re-engineered with a revised side profile and improved lug geometry.

The slimmer and more curved lugs provide an even better fit on all wrists. The graphics for the numerals and indices on the high-contrast dial have been refined to the smallest detail. Luminescent elements on the dial and the black hands ensure perfect readability in all lighting conditions.

The Pilot’s Watch Mark XX houses the IWC-manufactured 32111 calibre. This automatic movement features a silicon escapement and a double pawl winding system, building up a five-day power reserve. The front glass is specially secured to remain in place even in the event of a sudden pressure drop in the cockpit.

The integrated EasX-CHANGE® system lets the wearer change the strap or bracelet quickly and easily without any tools. A wide variety of straps and bracelets are available as accessories, allowing the wearer to customise their timepiece to their liking. The selection ranges from calfskin straps and stainless steel bracelets to durable, flexible and water-proof rubber straps in fresh and vibrant colours. Moreover, this versatile tool/sports watch is water-resistant to 10-bar/100m.

Additionally, they are eligible for registration under the My IWC care program, benefitting from a 6-year extension to the standard 2-year International Limited Warranty.

History of IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark Series

In the early days of aviation, pilots relied on astronomical navigation to determine their position in the sky. Relying on celestial bodies such as the sun or the moon to determine latitude and longitude, this procedure requires a sextant and a chronometer – a highly precise watch to measure the elapsed time. However, existing navigation watches back then were prone to numerous problems. Particularly challenging were the radar screens used during the approach phase as they generated strong magnetic fields, which could harm the accuracy of the watches. These issues made the RAF request the development of an entirely new navigation watch.

Following the RAF’s request, IWC Schaffhausen developed the Mark 11. Officially designated as the “navigator’s wristwatch Mk. 11 – Stores Ref. 6B/346”, it was delivered to them in 1948.

Its 89 calibre was housed in a soft-iron inner case to protect it from magnetic fields. Another essential requirement was perfect legibility. The Mark 11, therefore, featured a high-contrast dial with luminescence, which made it easy to read the time whenever visibility was limited.

This functional design in the style of an easy-to-read cockpit instrument remains a signature feature of IWC Pilot’s Watches. During the following decades, the Mark 11 was continuously upgraded and refined. Even as interference-free radio beacons made astronomical navigation obsolete, the Mark 11 remained a critical “backup instrument” for pilots in various Commonwealth countries well into the 1980s.

IWC Schaffhausen Ingenieur Automatic 40

Unveiled at the Watches and Wonders exhibition in Geneva in March 2023, the new IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 takes inspiration from the historic reference 1832 from the 1970s.

The IWC Ingenieur had originally been introduced in 1955. In the 1970s, Schaffhausen based manufacture commissioned the renowned watch designer Gérald Genta to redesign the Ingenieur. With his unique artistic signature, Genta succeeded in bestowing the Ingenieur a new, highly distinctive visual identity.

IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 Stainless Steel Version with black dial Ref. IW328901

The new Ingenieur Automatic 40 model reflects the bold aesthetic codes of Gérald Genta designed Ingenieur SL (reference 1832) while meeting the highest standards regarding ergonomics, finishing, and technology.

The overall dimensions of the case have been carefully reworked. The lug-to-lug distance of 45.7mm ensures perfect ergonomics and excellent wearability.

IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 Stainless Steel Version with silver-plated dial Ref. IW328902

While the Ingenieur SL from the 1970s had nose-shaped horns, the new Ingenieur Automatic 40 features a newly engineered middle-link attachment. Along with the curved casing ring, it enhances the ergonomics.

One of the most striking changes of the new model is the introduction of functional, polygonal screws on its bezel. For the Ingenieur SL, a bezel with five recesses was screwed onto the case ring. As a result, the recesses ended up in a different position on each watch.

IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 Stainless Steel Version with aqua dial Ref. IW328903

The Ingenieur Automatic 40 has five screws to secure the bezel to the case. The screws now have a technical function and, as a result, are always in the same position.

IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 Titanium Version with grey dial Ref. IW328904

Consisting of small lines offset by 90 degrees to each other, the distinctive “Grid” dial perfectly harmonizes with the technical and sculptural case design. To finish, the applied hour-markers with luminescence add additional depth and ensure easy legibility, even at night.

The case, bezel, and bracelet feature elaborately finishes using a combination of polished and satin-finished surfaces. The upper parts of the bracelet contain closed links without pins.

IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 Stainless Steel Version with silver-plated dial Ref. IW328902

The integration of an elaborately finished butterfly folding clasp highlights the beauty and thinness of the H-link bracelet. In addition, a newly designed crown protection further underscores the sporty character of the timepiece.

The Ingenieur Automatic 40 watch houses the IWC manufactured 32111 calibre. This self-winding movement comes with an automatic pawl winding system and a power reserve of 120 hours.

A soft-iron inner case efficiently protects the movement from the effects of magnetic fields on its accuracy. Water-resistant to 10 atm (100m), the Ingenieur Automatic 40 is a modern and fully versatile sports watch.

The Ingenieur Automatic 40 is available in three references in stainless steel (IW328901/ 02/ 03) and one titanium model, IW328904.

These new models are available through selected IWC boutiques. Additionally, it is eligible for registration under the My IWC care program, benefitting from a 6-year extension to the standard 2-year International Limited Warranty.

Swiss luxury watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen has expanded its TOP GUN series by presenting its first 41mm Pilot Chronographs in ceramic.

IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41mm TOP GUN Black Ceramic

The new IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN (ref. IW389401) is the brand’s first 41mm Pilot’s Chronograph with a “Jet Black” black zirconium oxide ceramic case.

Its “Jet Black” ceramic, inspired by the technical components of supersonic jets, has been the signature material of IWC TOP GUN since the line was established in 2007.

IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN Black Ceramic

A black dial and a black rubber strap complement the pitch-black ceramic case. Here, too, contrasting luminescent elements on the black hands and the dial enhance readability, even in the most challenging conditions. The titanium pushers and case back complement the sporty design.

The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN is available through IWC boutiques, authorised retail partners, or online at IWC.com.

Back in 2022, IWC introduced a collection of Pilot’s Watches in colored ceramic. These watches feature striking new shades developed in collaboration with Pantone®. It consisted of chronographs such as IWC Lake Tahoe white & IWC Woodland green.

Created in collaboration with Pantone®, the new ceramic color “Oceana” takes inspiration from the U.S. Navy’s blue overalls. In addition, the chronograph features a blue dial and a matching blue rubber strap with a denim finish textile inlay.

IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Top Gun “OCEANA”

Luminescence on the black hands and on the dial ensures excellent readability, even at night. The pushers and the case back are made of lightweight titanium.

The integrated IWC EasX-CHANGE® system makes it possible to exchange the strap quickly and easily without needing additional tools.

The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN “Oceana” is available through selected IWC boutiques.

Unveiled at the Watches and Wonders 2023 exhibition in Geneva, both chronographs house the IWC 69380 calibre, an in-house manufactured self-winding mechanical movement that combines robustness, reliability, and durability.

The chronograph minute register is placed directly at 12 o’clock to enhance readability. The vertical dial layout is the result of IWC’s functional design approach and has become a distinguishing feature of the company’s chronographs.

Both new models also feature a soft-iron inner case to protect their movements from the effects of magnetic fields. The front glasses are specially secured to withstand sudden drops in air pressure in the cockpit. Moreover, both timepieces are water resistant to 100 meters/10 bar.

In addition, the timepieces are eligible for registration under the My IWC care program, benefitting from a 6-year extension to the standard 2-year International Limited Warranty.
