NEW IWC Pilots Chronograph 41 IWC’s latest Pilot Chronograph 41 is a bronze piece, the second of its kind by the brand (first one being in SIHH in 2019). This latest release is largely similar to that initial Spitfire model, though it does not sit in the Spitfire collection. However, there are several valuable upgrades. The thickness is a major one, going almost a full millimetre down from 15.3mm to 14.5mm. It’s also impressive that this thinner case comes with a display case back whereas the Spitfire variant had an engraved case back. It also gives the brand a chance to show off its in-house chronograph caliber 69385. The most obvious difference between the latest release and the 2019 Spitfire model would be the dial. Where the latter had a rugged olive-green dial, this has a rich deep blue dial. Both pair with the warm tones of the bronze case extremely well & should work even after the material’s unique patina forms.
