IWC Schaffhausen just today enriches the TOP GUN line of Pilot’s Watches with the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph TOP GUN Edition “SFTI”.

Combining the black ceramic case with Ceratanium® pushers and caseback, this sporty chronograph sports a matte black design style with a tactical character. In 2018, replica IWC created the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition “Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor” in collaboration with instructors from Naval Air Station Lemoore in California. Featuring a black ceramic case with the iconic TOPGUN patch on the dial, this chronograph is available exclusively for pilots who have completed the Navy Fighter Weapons School. The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph TOP GUN Edition “SFTI”, limited to 1,500 pieces, is inspired by the famous “Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor” watch. It is part of the tradition of IWC’s TOP GUN high quality replica watches uk and is made of extraordinarily robust materials, to withstand the extreme stresses that pilots in the supersonic fighter cabin are subjected to such as the Boeing F / A-18 Super Hornet. The large 44 mm case is made of black zirconium oxide ceramic, one of the hardest materials in the world. The chronograph caseback and pushers are made from Ceratanium®, a recent innovation from IWC’s materials engineers. It is a new light and resistant material like titanium and at the same time hard and scratch-resistant like ceramic. Thanks to the combination of ceramic and Ceratanium®, the chronograph stands out for its all-matt black design. This jet black look is complemented by a black dial with black hands coated with luminescent treatment. The small seconds hand and the jet-shaped end of the chronograph seconds hand add a touch of red to the dial inspired by the onboard instrumentation. Inside the sturdy case beats the IWC Manufacture 69380 caliber, a precise and resistant chronograph movement, with a classic column wheel design, which ensures precise timekeeping and reading of chronograph times up to 12 hours. Another noteworthy function is the display of the date and day of the week. This sporty model is embellished with a green fabric strap.
