Introducing The Green IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar IW503608
While all the attention was focused (rightfully so) on the return of the Genta-inspired Ingenieur watch during the Geneva watch fair, IWC actually had more watches to present… at least discreetly. We’ve covered already the new Top Gun Chronograph 41 in black and blue, but more pilot watches have been unveiled. And one of them goes big and green, just like we like it. Here’s the IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calendar Green, and there’s a surprise on the back of the strap…Know as the reference IW503608, this new model doesn’t reinvent the wheel, if you allow me the expression. It is, in fact, a new colour to an already existing model, the updated BP Perpetual that was introduced in 2021, with a blue dial, a steel case and a blue leather strap. And now, well there’s a green edition – following what IWC has done already with both the BP43 watch here and its more elegant collection, with two green Portugieser models. Ad - Scroll to contin

Coinciding with the advent of recreational diving, in 1965, Oris launched its first diver's watch with a unidirectional rotating bezel, luminescent numerals, a Plexiglas crystal and a water-resistance rating of 100m. Fifty years later, the diver was relaunched in a faithful re-edition with modern mechanics and went on to become the highly successful and affordable retro-flavoured Divers Sixty-Five collection. While some quibbled about the relatively low impermeability for a dive watch, others were smitten by its vintage elements, and the collection expanded with models in different case sizes and materials.
