The Coolest IWC Big Pilot Replica Watch

The first ever IWC Big Pilot Replica with a carbon fibre composite case, the Big Pilot Black Carbon has a black dial with grey hands and markings, replicating the colour of the composite case. It’s livened up by red accents on the power reserve indicator and seconds hand.

The genesis of the Fake watch was formed at an IWC “design workshop” that took place in October 2018.

Despite the name change, the origins of the limited edition were not forgotten and live on in a small number of watches. Fourteen Luxury IWC Replica watches were reserved for the participants of the design workshop that gave birth to the idea.

Delivered in a commemorative box with a NATO-style strap only for the 14, these watches are identical to the standard versions save for one special detail: the “10” on the date wheel is in bright red, a reference to the 10th anniversary.

The Blue Hour: Replica IWC Portugieser Chronograph Edition

IWC Replica introduced a 150-year anniversary edition of its Portugieser Chronograph as a model alongside the original Portugieser Chronograph, which debuted in 1998.The newcomer’s case has been given a sapphire back and its dial boasts lacquered numerals; the standard model has applied numerals. The two watches are very similar in all other aspects, including their dimensions and proportions.

The Fake Portugieser Chronograph has enjoyed strong popularity for many years and is one of IWC’s bestselling models.

In an era when gents preferred to wear small and elegant wristwatches, the IWC Replica Watch must have looked like a gigantic measuring instrument strapped to its wearer’s wrist. The first models were manufactured in rather small numbers: after making only a few hundred specimens, IWC discontinued production of the Portugieser in 1958.

If the trend for large wristwatches had reversed itself, the big movement would have been useless. But history took a different turn, and the Portugieser was a big success.

With a diameter of 41 mm, the IWC Replica is nonetheless 1 mm smaller than the Portugieser Automatic. This size was formerly considered to be large, but nowadays 41 mm is a normal size for a wristwatch with a built-in stop-seconds function.

IWC Portugieser Replica Hand-Wound

The IWC Portugieser fake watch has a 46-mm stainless steel case and the traditional dial in “Laureus blue,” accented by rhodium-plated hands and hour numerals.

The dial’s layout features a 60-minute chronograph counter at 12 o’clock, a date window at 3 o’clock, small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, and an indicator for the IWC Replica watch’s impressive eight-day power reserve at 9 o’clock.

A single push-button embedded in the large fluted crown controls the chronograph functions — starting, stopping, and resetting the stopwatch to zero with simple pushes of the button.

Inside the 30-meter water-resistant case, Luxury IWC Fake Watches the movement that drives all these displays, the manually wound Caliber 59360 beats at a brisk frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz).
