Luxury Swiss watchmaker IWC has announced the launch of an all-new version of its 'Pilot's Watch Chronograph 41' in a luxurious bronze finish.
The new watch build's on the original's sleek aesthetics by introducing a 41mm specialty bronze case that utilizes a blend of iron, aluminum, and copper. As a result, the case is significantly tougher than traditional bronze, which is typically a fairly malleable metal. In addition, the new watch features a dark blue dial that is dressed with bronze hands, numerals, and markers. In terms of power, the watch comes equipped with the company's in-house 69385 automatic movement.
For those interested, the bronze edition of the 'Pilot's Watch Chronograph 41' is now available to purchase on IWC's website.
