Swiss luxury replica watch brand IWC Schaffhausen is reviving the tradition of smaller Pilot’s Replica Watches and launching a new 36-millimetre model that is inspired by the legendary Mark 11, which likewise had a case measuring 36 millimetres in diameter. The Pilot’s Replica Watch Automatic 36(Ref. 3240) is intended for replica watch lovers both male and female with a smaller wrist, who attach importance to the understatement implicit in a timelessly designed timepiece.
The dial design of the elegant three-hand replica watch remains reduced and uncluttered. A conspicuous feature of the new Pilot’s Replica Watches is a discreetly recessed inner circle, which lends the dial a more structured, three-dimensional appearance. The mirror polished bezel and sun-pattern finish on the dials, which make incident light appear to move around it in circles, lend a further touch of luxury to the replica watch.
The Pilot’s Replica Watch Automatic 36 with a slate-coloured dial is supplied with a dark brown Santoni alligator leather strap (Ref. IW324001) or a stainless-steel bracelet (Ref. IW324002). The stainless- steel bracelet is made up of alternating rows of satin- finished and polished links.
Combined with the polished bezel and slate-coloured dial, the result is a perfect example of sports-watch-inspired elegance. The Pilot’s Replica Watch Automatic 36 with silver-plated dial and blue indices is available with either a blue alligator leather strap from Santoni (Ref. IW324003) or a stainless-steel bracelet with satin-finished and polished links (Ref. IW324004). An additional version with a silver-plated dial is available with gold- coloured indices and a dark brown Santoni alligator leather strap (Ref. IW324005).
Apart from hour, minute and seconds hands, the Pilot’s Replica Watch Automatic 36 also has a rapid-advance date display, all powered by the rugged mechanical 35111 calibre.
The central hacking seconds is stopped by pulling out the crown, while the sapphire glass has an antireflective coating on both sides to guarantee a clear view of the display. The replica watch is water-resistant to 6 bar.
Despite its dainty appearance, the movement of the Pilot’s Replica Watch Automatic 36 is equipped with a soft-iron inner case for protection against magnetic fields. The mechanical automatic movement has a power reserve of 42 hours.
