IWC Pilot Bronze LE For The Rake & Revolution - Box & Papers/Near Mint

The genesis of the IWC Mark line begins in the 1930s when the brand emerged as a visionary force, crafting the very essence of what a pilot's timepiece should embody. In an ever-shrinking world, propelled by the marvels of aviation, pilots demanded watches of uncompromising caliber. The stakes were high, and these timepieces needed to endure the harshest of challenges - from the extremes of temperature to magnetic forces and relentless vibrations. The mandate was clear: absolute precision and unwavering durability were imperative. A testament to the relentless pursuit of excellence and a symbol of reassurance for those who dared to explore the skies. Released at SIHH '19 the IWC 3240 Pilot 36mm special edition for the Rake and Revolution was produced in limited run of just 150 pieces. The piece pays tribute to the Mark 11-one of IWC's most celebrated military watches, originally developed for the British Royal Air Force. Inspired by the clean, functional design language of the historic model, it captures the spirit of the gentleman aviator while introducing a distinctive color palette of forest green/bronze never before seen within IWC's Pilot's Watch collection. This example retains its inner and outer boxes, warranty papers and booklets but no longer includes its original straps. It remains in near mint condition and is ready to enjoy for many adventures to come.
