For 75 years, the historic Big Pilot's Watch was the largest wristwatch ever made by IWC. In 2016, the Manufacture unveils its successor: with www.tomsskooutlet.com its 55mm case, the Big Pilot's Heritage Watch 55 eclipses a record that was set back in 1940. If IWC's engineers took their cue from the original design and oakley replica size of 1940, the Big Pilot's Heritage Watch 55 is in titanium and weighs only 150 grams. Back then, size meant important advantages: a very big movement guaranteed the precision required for replica panerai navigation or observer's Replica Watches and a large dial was better able to accommodate clear numerals and offered much greater legibility. Back in those days, the dial design was very much based on historic cockpit instruments. The dial was matte black, and IWC's watchmakers had coated the big Arabic numerals and indices showing the minutes with a thick layer of beige-coloured radium. The health hazard posed by tag heuer replica radioactive luminescent coatings was only recognized years later, at which point radium was replaced by harmless materials. The current Super-LumiNova coating guarantees excellent legibility. As in the original, the chapter ring, Arabic numerals and propeller-like hands are beige.
