The IWC just announced that one of the next whole of watches which are due for the release to the S.H.H.H. is the collection of father and wire as an element of the celebrations for the birthday of IWC 140th.
They have the same taste in toys of the traditional men. And when the pairs go side by side against wind and tide, you can rest undoubtedly that they are a strong team – father and wire, indeed. It is a kind of secret society like any other.
With the watches of its pilot for the father and the son, the IWC makes a true proposal association-based for reports/ratios of father-and-wire: large watch controls in platinum for the father, and his stainless steel counterparts slightly smaller for the son. Almost each father has great plans for his son, and our identification with our father starts from an impression above a whole life. That which consciously stimulates this valid and the intimate bond sends a clear signal with this pair of watches. The watches of the pilot for the father and the son are like a guide of masculinity and represent a unit of perfect family. It is also true in technical terms, because the two watches belong to one of the most distinctive families of watch of IWC Schaffhausen – and they are tested – and – watches of pilot examined through and through.
In this particular case, however, they are a little more than that – for them many resemblances show. Like the father and the son. Both have the dial rhodium-plate and of clear color the same ones of the watches of the pilot, the same onion-formed crown easy to use pilot first of the watches of the IWC, and the same leather brown steel rivets of belt of crocodile and characteristics. Carry and hold it outside you of crowd. Individually and even together. The only difference between the two watches is their size – as the father and the son. This ideal combination, which was specifically conceived for this purpose – and this purpose only – is the watches not only also of the pilot available for the father and the son, but also that the watches of the pilot for the father and wire in the framework of an large family to make sure that the equitability reigns and the domestic harmony is maintained.
For those with a technical interest, hidden behind the model for the father in his platinum case of 46.2 X 15.8 millimetres is the ref. 5004, of large the watch controls with gauge 51111, the famous long mechanical movement with an automatic system of rolling up of Pellaton, the date and the seven days reservation of power which is indicated on the dial. Sapphire glass antireflective is particularly fixed against displacement by a sudden fall in the atmospheric pressure. And it watch is resistant to water with bar 6.
The smaller edition for the son corresponds mainly in technical terms to mark XVI of the watch of the pilot to his stainless steel case of 39 X 11.5 millimetres and to the automatic movement 30110calibre. It also has a crown onion-formed by screw-in, sapphire glass antireflective fixed against displacement by a sudden fall in the atmospheric pressure, the watches of the pilot for mark XVI of the watch of the large pilot of father and wire and of the watch of the pilot central occasion and a posting of date. This watch rests also comfortably on the wrist on brown, belt out of crocodile skin and is protected from the loss by staples strong from folding. It, also, is resistant to water with bar 6.
Small but remarkable detail eliminates the undesirable mix-rises, in particular in the case of a crew with several wire: the intimate circle on the back of the watch is reserved for a engraved name, which does not leave the doubt as for which is ready for takeoff.
