Pilot's Watch Automatic 36 Le Petit Prince

This new Le Petit Prince edition in 36 mm is quite intriguing. Unlike IWC's other 36 mm iterations it has no date and gets the 120 hours (5 days) power reserve 32102 movement. And, you probably don't have to rob a bank... $5300... 😉

Sorry to hear about your bad experience.

Sometimes in automatic calibers the rotor by itself is not enough to top up the power needed, this generally happens in older micro rotor movements but can also happen with normal automatic movements too, why not wind the watch manually say every 2-3 days
