The IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph TOP GUN Edition “Woodland” is the first IWC watch featuring a case in newly engineered, dark green ceramic. A dark green hue, inspired by the flight suits of and uniforms of TOPGUN pilots, as well as the vast forest landscapes whose airspaces these pilots use as a training area; “Woodland” is the newest addition to IWC’s colored ceramic portfolio, and the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph TOP GUN Edition “Woodland” is the first model to feature this color code. Colored ceramics result from a sophisticated manufacturing process in which zirconium oxide is mixed with other metallic oxides. Because the color changes during the sintering process, it takes countless trials and a lot of experience to determine the right blend of raw materials. The monochromatic design is completed by a dark green dial and black hands and printing and luminescent material in a subdued green. The pushers, crown, and case back with an engraving of the TOP GUN logo are made of Ceratanium®. This matte black IWC material is as light and unbreakable as titanium and, at the same time, similarly hard and scratch-resistant as ceramic. Inside the 44-millimetre ceramic case, the IWC-manufactured 69380 calibre is at work. The chronograph movement in classic column-wheel design also features a day and date display at 3 o’clock. A soft-iron inner case shields the movement from the effects of magnetic fields. This TOP GUN chronograph is fitted on a green rubber strap with textile inlay, whose color has been perfectly matched to the “Woodland” case.<br /><br /><strong>Case:</strong><li>Ceramic case</li><li>Diameter 44.5mm</li><li>Height 15.7 mm</li><li>Screw in crown</li><li>Water resistance 6 bar</li><br /><strong>Movement:</strong><li>69380 Caliber</li><li>Automatic, self-winding</li><li>46 hours Power Reserve</li><li>Frequency 28800.0 vph (4.0 hz)</li><li>242 Components</li><li>33 Jewels</li><br /><strong>Features:</strong><li>Small hacking seconds</li><li>Sapphire glass, convex, antireflective coating on both sides</li><li>Glass secured against displacement by drop in air pressure</li><li>Day and date display</li><li>Soft-iron inner case for protection against magnetic fields</li><li>Chronograph function with hours, minutes and seconds</li><br />IWC Style #: IW389106
