Last year, my friend from Thailand came to town and one of the things he had wanted was a watch. He originally wanted either a Panerai or Rolex but after I brought him to the IWC Boutique, his mind was made up immediately when he saw the Pilot's Watch Chronograph, Edition Le Petit Prince.
This is a special edition piece with their signature cockpit dial in a sunburst midnight blue colour. Sits perfectly on my tiny wrist. And the reflection from the sunlight gives the dial a much lighter blue hue.
The raised applied markers are well finished and adds a touch of class to the timepiece.
Another look at the midnight blue dial - a very clean and legible layout. This is the reference 3777 with a case diameter of 43mm.
The accompanying brown calfskin strap with beige stitching perfectly matches the timepiece.
And the case back reveals that the timepiece is water resistant to 6 bars. Engraving of the Little Prince makes this a special edition.
As I have said before, my friend was so taken by this timepiece that he did not hesitate to purchase it on the spot. He tells me that even his wife likes it too and they share the piece together.
