2017 IWC Pilot's Chronograph 'Le Petit Prince' Blue 43mm IW377714
Here we have a 2017 IWC Pilot's Chronograph 'Le Petit Prince' Blue 43mm IW377714, the “Le Petit Prince” was written in 1942 by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, who was a French aristocrat, writer, and military aviator. IWC has worked closely with its descendants since 2005 and has auctioned off many special timepieces to raise funds for its charity to help children and young people in unfortunate circumstances. The 43mm satin brushed stainless steel case has a soft iron inner case that protects the watch from a magnetic field, similar to a Faraday cage. The subtle curve of the case leads to a lug-to-lug length of 53mm and a case thickness of 14.5mm, giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. Down the right side, we have the polished chronograph pushers and a screw-down signed crown in the centre, a smooth bezel with chamfered edges, and a convex sapphire crystal AR coated on both sides. A glossy deep blue sunburst dial has an outer minute track with baton indexes coated in Super-LumiNova C1 luminance marking the hours, large Arabic numerals lay just underneath again coated in Super-LumiNova C1 luminance with the triangle and pips at 12 o’clock, a characteristic seen on many pilot timepieces, at 3 o’clock a day/date window. The chronograph consists of a 30-minute register at 12 o’clock, a 12-hour register at 6 o’clock and finally, a running seconds register with a red hand at 9 o’clock. Each register has a concentric circular pattern. Elegant Alpha hands coated in luminance complemented with a tapered chronograph hand, at 3 o’clock, we have the IWC motif completing this military-inspired chronograph. On the reverse, a screw-down case back with the “Little Prince” engraved in the centre. Inside an automatic IWC Cal. 79320, 25 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, based on the ETA 7750 movement, IWC modified it to their exact specifications. It comes paired with a 21mm calf skin leather strap and signed pin buckle. The watch also comes with its IWC presentation box and papers.
