The IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph (ref. IW388109) joins the brand’s long-standing aviation lineage with a warm bronze case that subtly patinates over time – a material choice historically tied to instrument durability and now embraced for its evolving character. Paired with a striking blue dial, the aesthetic is at once modern and evocative of cockpit precision.

The 41mm bronze case is matched with a titanium case back to reduce weight and prevent skin contact with the alloy. Its blue dial features contrasting white numerals, three-register chronograph layout, and day-date complication, all powered by IWC’s in-house calibre 69385. This automatic movement offers a 46-hour power reserve and column-wheel driven chronograph function. Water-resistant to 100m, the watch is both robust and practical for daily wear.

Introduced in 2022, the IW388109 continues IWC’s tradition of pairing technical credibility with design rooted in its flying heritage. The use of bronze and the clean integration of modern calibre technology make this a distinctive entry in the Pilot’s Watch collection.
