Review IWC Big Pilot’s Watch Le Petit Prince IW500916

The IWC Big Pilot Replica Watch keeps its propeller-shaped hands, highly legible and coherent with the historical design, as well as its date at 6 (which, to us, could be removed…) and the 7-day power reserve indicator at 3.

The case of the 2016 IWC Big Pilot’s Watch also undergoes a very minimal evolution. It keeps its 46mm case (in stainless steel in this Edition ‘Le Petit Prince’ ref. IW500916) with a slightly larger aperture for the dial and thus, a tiny bit slimmer bezel (but again, we’re talking minimal touches). The finish of the case remains the same, with sides and lugs entirely brushed and a polished bezel and diamond-like crown. As usual, it is a hefty watch on the wrist – as you can expect from a 46mm case – with rather long lugs. Thus, it wears large but it has to be said that this size is part of the pleasure of the IWC Big Pilot’s Watch – and something that, even if much smaller, remains in the idea of the antique edition. On the other hand, if you do have the wish to experience the beauty of the pilot’s watch in a smaller case, you can easily look at the 40mm Mark XVIII editions.

Just like the older ref. 5004, the new IWC Big Pilot’s Watch relies on the well known 7-day power reserve Calibre 51111. Surprisingly, we expected IWC to come with the new version of the 168-hour power reserve movement, the Calibre 52010 – that is encased in the 2015 Portugeiser watches – and that features a twin barrel, a new escapement, a nicer finish, an improved Pellaton winding mechanism, ceramic parts and a redesigned, slimmer rotor.
