This IWC Big Pilots Watch 43 Edition “Mr Porter” timepiece is limited to 500 pieces. It has a sandblasted finish for the case, a screw-in crown, an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and a soft-iron inner cage against magnetism. The water resistance is comfortable at 100m. The height of the case is, however, quite noticeable, at 14.4mm. The length of the case, well over 50mm, requires a solid wrist or the deliberate choice of an oversized look. What’s unique to the Bronze IWC Big Pilot 43 For Mr Porter is its dial. Matte black, with contrasting elements in gold color (for the hands) or beige (for the markers). The hands and markers (at each quarter) are luminous, but so is the 1 numeral to celebrate the first in a series of collaborations with IWC. Under the titanium back, with dedicated engravings, is the in-house calibre 82100, a mid-level automatic movement with Pellaton winding reinforced with ceramic components and a comfortable power reserve of 60 hours. It also comes with a practical quick-change system named EasX-CHANGE – and thus, you’ll be able to pair this watch with any of the brand’s straps
