The pilot’s chronograph is a rare modern classic that was introduced in 1994 and remained in production only until 1998. According to research performed by Phillips and IWC, only 999 ceramic examples were made, with a larger production number for the reference 3706, the stainless steel model. The reference 3705 has an appeal of machismo and stylish flair with its dark ceramic case — a fully compressed, molded ceramic, not just a surface coating.
The present example is in excellent overall condition with sharp case and clean original dial with luminous hour markers that have aged beautifully to a warm creamy color. As would be expected of a watch from IWC, the calendar is in German. It is worth noting that the current example is exactly 50 numbers apart from the one sold at STYLED.
