The IWC Big Pilot has earned its cult status, as the oversized 46mm pilot's watch is, without a doubt, one of the most emblematic and striking watches of its kind. With over 20 years of history (and close to 85 years if you look back at the ancestor, the 1940 B-Uhr by IWC), there have been countless editions, some truly collectable. Yet, probably no other timepiece from IWC's pilot collection has achieved the status of the 2008 Big Pilot Markus Bühler (ref. IW5003) - an ultra-limited edition inspired by a unique piece Markus Bühler created for a competition in the final year of his watchmaker apprenticeship at IWC Schaffhausen. Its most striking feature, an aircraft turbine on the small seconds and over its barrel, has captivated collectors over the years... As a gift for the fans, the turbine-equipped IWC Big Pilot Markus Bühler is back in 2023, now in platinum and linked to a complex flying tourbillon architecture. And we have its creator, Mr Bühler himself, presenting his new interpretation (ref. IW329901) in front of our camera.
