IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph Edition Racing Green IW377726 (Specs & Price)
Do we even need to introduce the IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph anymore…? This watch certainly is amongst the most iconic pieces manufactured by the Schaffhausen-based brand and, in its modern version, sums up years of slow evolution of the Pilot’s Watch concept at IWC. Usually seen in black with a utilitarian look (under the ref. IW3777), IWC today brings a cool and unprecedented racing theme to this piece, with the new Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition Racing Green IW377726.As said, this watch needs little introduction. The IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph is a classic the brand’s collection, as the entry-level chronograph and a nice alternative to the large and expensive Big Pilot’s Watch or a more masculine and slightly more complex option compared to the Mark XVIII.

Well, things are changing, with the return of classic chronographs and traditional hand-wound movements. And to inaugurate this new collection named La Fabrique, the brand has teamed up with design studio Massena LAB, who has created a re-edition of a stunning vintage doctor’s watch, which is now powered by an internally-produced movement (and what a movement indeed…) Let’s have a closer look at the new Angelus x Massena LAB Chronographe Medical.If you look at the current collection of Angelus, it surely doesn’t reflect what the brand has done in the past. There was a choice not to create vintage re-editions, but
