Big Pilot’s Watch Shock Absorber XPL Toto Wolff x Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team

The Big Pilot's Watch Shock Absorber XPL Toto Wolff x Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team combines IWC’s patented SRPIN-g PROTECT shock absorber system with a technical design inspired by the team’s signature color scheme.

ABOUT THE WATCH

Big Pilot’s Watch Shock Absorber XPL Toto Wolff x Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team

With the Big Pilot's Watch Shock Absorber XPL Toto Wolff x Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team, IWC has developed a watch that is engineered to withstand the enormous stresses and strains of Formula One™ – in the car cockpit and in the pit lane. Limited to 100 pieces, it combines IWC’s patented SPRIN-g PROTECT® shock absorber system with a distinctively technical design inspired by the team’s black and green color scheme. Developed by IWC’s engineering division XPL, the SPRIN-g PROTECT® system takes movement shock protection to a new level. A cantilever spring cushions the movement inside the case, protecting it from the g-forces generated by impacts on the case of the watch. In impact tests conducted at the Cavendish Laboratory at the Cambridge University, protected movements have survived forces from accelerations in excess of 30,000 g. The spring is designed with a special form and manufactured from a Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG). Thanks to its amorphous microstructure, this highly engineered material is significantly more elastic than conventional metals. For this limited edition, the BMG spring has been coated with Petronas-green Super-LumiNova® and glows in the dark. The case and the crown of this watch are made of Ceratanium®, and IWC-developed material that combines the lightness and robustness of titanium with a hardness similar to ceramic. The black dial features a grainy technical structure, which is stamped into the brass base with a special tool. The triangular black hands also feature Super-LumiNova® around their edges. The watch is powered by the IWC-manufactured 32101 caliber with an automatic winding system and power reserve of 120 hours. The plates, bridges and oscillating mass are blackened to match the all-black design, and the movement is visible through a tinted sapphire glass case back. The watch is fitted with an integrated Petronas green rubber strap. A black rubber strap with textile inlay is included as an accessory.
