IWC – Montre d’Aviateur Automatique 36Pilot watches have an instantly recognisable design: large size, big Arabic numerals, chunky hands, protruding crown and minimalist dial.

The self-winding 3511 calibre powers the time and date functions along with the 42-hour power reserve.The dial comes in three colours: silver, slate and blue. The central disc bearing the black and white Arabic numerals and luminescent hour, minute and seconds hands stands slightly above the minute track. A black-on-white date display appears at 3 o' clock.Price upon request.By Sharmila Bertin
