IWC Pilot's Chronograph - Top Gun Miramar
Reference : IW389002
Serial number : 6022146
"Miramar is the US Naval Air Base in San Diego, California and it's famed Top Gun training progamme - this edition by IWC is a tribute to this Air Base and the Pilots who qualified there between 1969 -1996 "
Purchased in April 2016 and hardly worn in the intervening 2 years the watch is in mint condition
I was fortunate to be invited to the IWC Hospitality at the Goodwood Revival in 2015 when the Miramar Top Gun Chronograph was first launched and I was the first to order one of these watches
Hence when the first watch landed in the Bond Street Boutique I was invited to collect the watch and was presented with a letter to commemorate that this is the 'first piece in the UK' from the UK Brand Director Simon Chambers - see picture
I am selling a few watches as my collection is too big
Sold with original box, IWC cleaning cloth, warranty paperwork, sales invoice, card receipt and the IWC commemoration letter
ie Nothing is missing since leaving the IWC boutique in April 2016
IWC Technical Description
The IWC Pilot Watch Chronograph- Top Gun Miramar pays tribute to the birth place of the Top Gun pilots, the Pilots' school of the US marines in Miramar/California. Between the years 1969 - 1996 the reputation of the elite pilots spread rapidly. The Miramar chronograph with military styled design is characterised by the metallic tones of the ceramic case along with the classic military colours. The unconventional division into an external chapter ring and an inner hour circle is a reference to the deck watches of the 1930s – 40s, therefore leading into the historic legacy of IWC Pilots Watches.
