The IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph (ref. IW388305) evolves the brand’s aviation lineage with a sharp technical twist, integrating motorsport influence through its partnership with Mercedes-AMG. Its titanium case gives the 42mm chronograph a matte, lightweight authority, perfectly paired with the utilitarian functionality of the black dial.

A ceramic tachymeter bezel—unusual in a traditional pilot’s chrono—adds a racing element to the reference, all framed by the grained surface and bold lume-filled numerals of the dial. The calibre 69385, IWC’s in-house automatic movement, delivers a 46-hour power reserve via a column-wheel architecture and is protected against magnetic fields beneath a soft-iron inner case. Water-resistance is rated at 100m, making the timepiece ready for everyday or more strenuous wear.

Ref. IW388305 stands out within the Pilot’s Watch collection not only for its titanium construction and hybrid inspirations, but also for its restrained, highly wearable dimensions—balancing cockpit legibility with modern sport-performance cues.
