DESCRIPTION
Available now is a rare and exciting limited edition: the IWC Pilot’s Chronograph C.03, a love letter to late-‘90s IWC crafted in collaboration with Collective Horology, the California-based enthusiast group known for its thoughtful, design-driven partnerships with top-tier watchmakers.
The C.03 is inspired by the beloved IWC ref. 3706, the original flieger chronograph that helped define a golden era for the brand. That era, marked by rugged charm and unapologetically functional design, resonates deeply with collectors, and this watch captures that vibe in a modern package. The 41mm stainless steel case houses IWC’s in-house caliber 69385, a column-wheel chronograph movement visible through a sapphire caseback, complete with a sleek blackened rotor.
What makes this version special? It’s all in the details. A monochrome matte black dial keeps things pure, while the day-date complication is subtly distinctive with a German day wheel — a nod to IWC’s roots in the Swiss-German town of Schaffhausen. This isn’t your average IWC Pilot Chrono. It’s stripped back, streamlined, and designed with enthusiasts in mind. There’s no red text, no gimmicks, just the raw essence of what makes a flieger chronograph great.
Produced in a limited run exclusively for Collective members, the C.03 stands apart from the rest of the IWC Pilot lineup with its cleaner aesthetic and tighter historical reference point. It’s one of those watches that quietly commands attention...the kind of piece that insiders recognize immediately.
CONDITION
This watch was purchased brand new in 2022 from an official IWC boutique by the original and only owner. It remains in exceptional pre-owned condition with only the faintest surface swirls, and no major distractions to speak of. This is as good as you should expect to find for a pre-worn watch.
The watch comes as a complete full set, including its original outer and inner boxes, a beautiful leather structured carry pouch, papers/booklets, and warranty card dated Feb, 2022.
