IWC Pilot s watch in bronze for first time
The new Spitfire model, for the first time using bronze and an in-house movement. The movement has 72 hour autonomy, anti magnetic protection and is pretty accurate. 39mm case( 1 mm smaller than its predecessor) , calfskin leather strap, green dial. Really cool tool watch, with character
