WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Big Pilot IW329304 is part of the esteemed Big Pilot's Watch collection, a lineage that traces its roots back to the 1940s when IWC first manufactured watches for aviators, specifically designed to be legible and functional at high altitudes. Introduced in the 2020s, the IW329304 is special for its embodiment of both heritage and modern innovation. This model features a 43mm stainless steel case, making it slightly more accessible in size compared to its predecessors, while still maintaining the distinctive, easy-to-read dial and iconic crown that have defined the Big Pilot series. It is powered by the IWC-manufactured 82100 calibre movement, known for its Pellaton winding system and impressive 60-hour power reserve. The watch's blue dial, a nod to the skies traversed by pilots, coupled with a brown calfskin strap, offers a contemporary yet timeless aesthetic. The IW329304 stands out for its blend of historical significance, with design cues harking back to the original 1940s pilot watches, and state-of-the-art watchmaking technology, making it a coveted piece for aviation enthusiasts and watch collectors alike.

WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Reference IW322701 is a distinctive model from the International Watch Company (IWC), renowned for its blend of technical sophistication and classic design.

This was for a brief period of time before the redesigned IW500401 was publicly released later in 2006. These 5002s with a higher-beat movement are called 'transitional' BPs.

WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Portofino Chronograph, first introduced in 1984, is a timeless watch from IWC. Inspired by the Italian fishing village Portofino, it embodies elegance and simplicity. The IW391007 model, released in 2011, features a stainless-steel case, sapphire glass, and a silver-plated dial, enhancing its classic, refined style.

The IWC Portofino Chronograph IW391007 stands out for its sleek design and precision. Its 42mm stainless-steel case, silver-plated dial, and polished appliqués exude sophistication. Driven by a self-winding 75320 calibre movement, it boasts a 44-hour power reserve. The watch's day-date display and chronograph function enhance its practicality and desirability for watch enthusiasts.

The IWC Portofino Chronograph IW391007 houses the self-winding calibre 75320, a reliable and precise movement. With 25 jewels, it offers a 44-hour power reserve and operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The Calibre 75320 also includes a chronograph function, day-date display, and small hacking seconds, ensuring practicality and accuracy for wearers.

This is a real sleeper watch that should get more attention than it does. The first thing that stands out when wearing this watch is that it's not a very thick watch for being a chronograph. The 13.5mm thickness is very refreshing. It's also under 50mm lug to lug so it'll fit pretty well on even smaller wrists. I would say this wears like a 41 or even a 40mm watch. The case design and pushers have a very unique, almost Italian style. The watch can be easily dressed up and down depending on the strap. Overall a fantastic watch for the money, it's no wonder this watch has been a staple of the IWC collection for a while now.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

The watch was barely worn and is in Near Mint condition with only very minor surface wear. I'd give the case 9.3/10. The movement is running strong, keeping good time with no issues whatsoever. The watch comes with the original IWC warranty card from 2017. It comes on the original IWC leather strap, with a factory IWC buckle. The strap was barely worn and is around 9/10. Comes with an aftermarket box.

SOLD OUT: IWC Top Gun IW389001 44.5mm Chronograph Black Ceramic Box 2016

$0.00

WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Top Gun is a series of pilot watches from the International Watch Company (IWC), a Swiss luxury watch manufacturer. Launched in 2007, the Top Gun line is part of IWC's Pilot's Watch family, influenced by the elite United States Navy Fighter Weapons School, also known as TOPGUN. These timepieces blend IWC's watchmaking expertise with the high-performance requirements of fighter pilots. The Top Gun series features robust materials like ceramic and titanium, making them highly resistant to external stressors. Iconic models include the "Miramar" and "Mojave Desert," showcasing IWC's commitment to innovation and design in the watchmaking industry.

The IWC IW389001 is a specific model within the IWC Top Gun collection, first introduced in 2016.

The IWC IW389001 stands out due to its unique combination of style, functionality, and inspiration. Its design pays homage to the prestigious United States Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN), evoking a sense of adventure and elite performance. The use of high-quality materials, like a black ceramic case and titanium case back, offers durability and lightweight wearability. Its automatic, self-winding chronograph movement ensures precision and reliability. The black dial with luminescent hands and indices offers excellent legibility in low-light conditions. The IW389001's blend of aviation history, cutting-edge materials, and sophisticated design makes it a standout timepiece.

The IWC IW389001 features the in-house Calibre 89361, an automatic, self-winding movement with a 68-hour power reserve. This highly reliable and precise movement includes a chronograph function, date display, and flyback mechanism, allowing pilots and enthusiasts to measure time intervals with ease and efficiency while showcasing IWC's horological expertise.

On the wrist, the first thing you notice is how light this watch is for its 44.5mm diameter. I love how clean and legible this dial is. Compared to other Top Gun models I think this is the most desirable with the two sub-registered combined into one at the top. You can tell this is an in-house movement when you activate the chronograph or wind the watch. This watch is light, comfortable, and legible enough to be an everyday tool watch for me.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

The watch is from 2016 and is in overall excellent condition. The ceramic case has barely any wear and is around 9.5/10. The dark brown factory IWC strap was worn sparingly and is around an 8/10 with plenty of life left on it. The strap is affixed to a factory IWC deployment buckle. The watch is keeping excellent time and has zero mechanical issues with the chronograph resetting to zero. The watch comes with a box only, no papers.

SOLD OUT: IWC Portuguese 7 Day Reserve IW500705 Portugieser 42mm Box Papers 2018

WHY THIS WATCH

The IWC Portuguese line was born when two Portuguese businessmen commissioned IWC to create a few wristwatches that had the accuracy of marine chronometers. At the time, the only way IWC could achieve this was to install pocket watch movements into these watches. This made the watches bigger than what was popular at the time. The theme of a big, highly legible and accurate wristwatch continued to IWC's present day Portugieser.

IWC unveiled the original IWC Portuguese 7 Day (ref. 5001) in the year 2000. This watch was a real game-changer for IWC, as it showcased IWC's serious watchmaking and engineering prowess. The calibre 5000 used for this watch was the result of 4 years of R&D. The Pellaton winding system in this movement is based on a patent from the 1950's, developed by Albert Pellaton, IWC's technical director during the 1940s.

IWC did a major update to the Portuguese 7 Day in 2015. The New 52010 calibre features the use of ceramic parts, which will be virtually impervious to wear. Additionally, IWC installed a free-sprung balance system, which helps increase the accuracy of the movement as it approaches days 6 and 7 of the Power Reserve.

On the wrist, this watch feels large, with large 22mm spacing between the lugs, and clocking in at nearly 50mm lug to lug. The 42.3mm diameter is not that big on paper, but remember this watch is nearly 14mm thick. Having said that, I have average wrists and can wear this watch every day. I think the deployment clasp is a must, as it balances out an otherwise top heavy watch. Once you've got this watch strapped on, the dial with those gorgeous blued Arabic numerals and hands becomes the star of the show. It feels great knowing that I can lay this watch down for 7 days and it'll still be ticking. The huge date display at the bottom is also great to have. Flipping it over, you can tell IWC did a huge refresh for this movement.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch was purchased in 2018 from an IWC Authorized Dealer and comes with the full set of Box and Papers, including stamped warranty card dated 2018. This watch is in Near Mint Condition, around 95%. Sides of case are very clean, almost perfect, some scratches on the deployment buckle and a little wear on the strap. The strap has most of it's life left, I would say it's around 80%. The movement is running strong without any issues.

WHY THIS WATCH

History of the Portuguese

The IWC Portuguese line was created in the 1930's when two Portuguese wholesalers approached IWC to commission a large wristwatch that carried the precision of a pocket watch. The 43mm reference IWC 325 was created as a result. Although this reference was not a big seller for IWC at the time, it gained a cult-like following decades later. It also paved the way for the IWC's Portuguese lineup. The modern Portuguese line pays homage to the original reference 325, with a range of watches that are around 41mm in diameter with a focus on big, accurate movements.

In 1998 IWC launched the IWC Portuguese Chronograph, reference 3714. With it's perfect proportions, and a simple yet elegant dial layout, this reference would soon become IWC's high selling and most popular watch. In 2020, IWC released the reference 3716 which was a major update to the Portuguese Chronograph. Most notably, the reference 3716 was powered by IWC's in-house chronograph movement.

A formula that works

Outside of the new In-House movement, IWC didn't change much when it introduced this new reference, and that is a smart decision in our opinion. The design and engineering elements that made this watch so beloved were not changed. Namely, the case of this watch is very compact, at 41mm and 13mm in height. The dial is simple, but very elegant and extremely legible. This is a watch that can be worn by almost anyone and for any occasion.

In House Calibre 69355

The biggest change to the Portuguese Chronograph is the introduction of the in-house movement, reference 69355. This movement is far superior to the Valjoux 7750 in the older model. It's a column wheel chronograph, meaning it's smoother upon activation. Also the power reserve is up a few hours to 46.

Wrist Impressions

This watch was always been one of my favorite references, not just from IWC but from any brand. It's just the perfect size for my average 6.5 inch wrist. I can't stop staring at those Arabic numerals. There's something just so special about this dial. I would venture to say this is the most beautiful and readable dial of all time. I find that this watch dresses down pretty well with the brown suede strap.
