<div dir="ltr">Press Release &#8211; Watch the pilot hand injury</p>
<p>International Whaling Commission, the first trials started in 1936 to observe things. As the first of particular concern to young, strict form of transport it has almost all the important functions, such as: black dial-up strong, luminescent hands and numbers, this is the development model of the classical cockpit design, and later sometimes also a movement , Antimagnetic some escape. And a long series of professional pilot&#8217;s watches also have rotating ring around the light-emitting Triangle to help calculate flight time, thereby reducing fuel consumption.</p>
<p>Modern interpretation of this mother of all IWC pilot&#8217;s watch has a dial-up the original, an increase of the size of 44 millimeters in the circumstances, a small second hand and two-way rotating ring-conditioning installation and light-emitting from within the triangle. In contrast, 83-caliber, which is used in 1936, the pilot&#8217;s watch is equipped with a special hand-wound watch precious stones &#8211; the 98,300-caliber: Hand sad table movement, balance frequency of 2.5 Hz, large screw balance and balance spring Bao. 98-caliber family, design can be traced back to the 20th century, 30 years, is a watch movement, the International Whaling Commission has been the longest series production. If this is used in the new antique clocks on the basis of the technical style of the first Jones caliber of its 1868 nickel-plated and decorative three quarter plate of nickel silver and elongation index in order to facilitate the active length of fine-tuning the balance of the spring, this is all characteristics, the Dow Jones caliber.</p>
<p>Founder Mark this to leave here, it will naturally attract. Because it not only is the actual &#8220;window&#8221; of the dial is made of sapphire glass, and transparent cover. In addition, the sapphire-coated glass dial.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.iwcwiki.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/iwc-pilots-watch-utc-edition-antoine-de-saint-exupery.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-66" title="iwc-pilots-watch-utc-edition-antoine-de-saint-exupery" src="http://www.iwcwiki.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/iwc-pilots-watch-utc-edition-antoine-de-saint-exupery.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="260" /></a></p>
<div id="result_box" dir="ltr">Press Release &#8211; With the third pilot&#8217;s watch in succession in the Edition Antoine de Saint Exupery, the International Whaling Commission commended the pilot well-known authors and literary works, &#8220;Terre des Hommes&#8221; (Wind, Sand and Stars), from 1939 year. To do this again typical aviation added function: the UTC world time display, developed countries, the International Whaling Commission 10 years ago. This special edition also includes a one-time auction of platinum watches were a good cause.</p>
<p>&#8220;My eyes scanned the wheel repeatedly. I am well-behaved in all subjects, but each needle is there, it should be &#8230;&#8221; This is the first sentence of the &#8220;Terre des Hommes&#8221; from1939, in which Antoine de Saint-Egyptian describes a spectacular crash landing in the Libyan desert. The flight is aimed at him and his mechanic Prévot from Paris to Ho Chi Minh City, also set a new record, the route has come to an end. There is no doubt that this account is one of the most exciting described survive in the desert, and &#8220;Saint-Exupery&#8221; Love life &#8211; its sand, night, silence, as their home, &#8220;the wind and the stars.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Terre des Hommes&#8221; is perhaps the most impressive of Saint-Exupery&#8217;s hymn aviation and start-up under extreme conditions era. This is a praise of the struggle between the pilots and the air forces of nature, from the hands of their distance, height and time. In this book, he also tells the story of mobile people, in order to survive to fight his friend Henri Guillaumet, who crashed in the snow-covered Andes. He described how he survived five days and nights, until the last, close to death, he was discovered and rescued.</p>
<p>Settings can not be more extreme: from the vast Patagonia ice sheets through the Cordillera Mountains hostile vast Sahara. Continents in many time zones. What may be more appropriate, rather than to provide the third special edition of the International Whaling Commission, the pilot&#8217;s watch exclusive live and work of French writer, a typical pilot&#8217;s complication: the development of UTC display and the first time the International Whaling Commission use in the pilot&#8217;s watch totally more than ten years ago. Coordinated Universal Time referred to as advocates &#8211; Today, this has become the established time standards, based on Greenwich Mean Time, including international flights schedule.</p>
<p>The most significant features of the coordination of the world is its purpose is to meet this requirement of prosperity long before the time in the world watches. Although the reference to the time display window unswervingly continue to run &#8211; whether the Universal Time, or at the local time for your place of residence &#8211; the actual time zone, the location can be easily adjusted in one-hour steps, through the crown. It provides unlimited adjustment, both forwards and back, so in any direction of flight. Shows that the date is synchronized jump-hour show and returned it the day before, because it is adjusted backwards &#8211; or advance payment adjustment after the second day of an hour show at midnight. Such a mechanism so that each District direct use and inadequate judicial aviation needs.</p>
<p>In his day, Antoine de Saint Exupery is impossible to use such a practical invention. However, in the third watch a special edition dedicated to him is also a combination of visual nostalgia pioneering days of aviation watches the most up-to-date technology. In order to increase the memory of the pioneer era of aviation, the watch is accompanied by an exclusive, limited edition of the novel &#8220;Terre des Hommes&#8221; from Gallimard in Paris, this book&#8217;s original publisher. Novels published this year decided a number of watches in the version of Saint-Exupery: 1939, of which 1188 in stainless steel, 500 rose gold, 250 gold, in a white single example, in platinum, which will not be sold, and will again be auctioned for charity at a later date. Proceeds from the auction on this occasion will be conducive to SIPAR organization in Cambodia, it is committed to providing schools, libraries and children&#8217;s books translated into the national language, Khmer Rouge in the past 25 years. Coincidentally, the first book has been translated SIPAR is &#8220;The Little Prince&#8221; of Antoine de Saint Exupery.</p>
<p>Watch case diameter is 44 millimeters and dial-up once again in the same tobacco brown previous model. In such cases, also the initial &#8220;A&#8221; of Antoine de Saint-Exupery&#8217;s signature decorative dial-up here in the &#8220;9.00.&#8221; The 30,710-caliber automatic sports center second hand, seconds stop function and date display for the drive mechanism for viewing. And by convex sapphire glass secured against a sudden drop in pressure, movement from the strong magnetic field of soft iron inner case. Light brown buffalo strap backstitching its distinctive feature of further observation, which also has a huge collector attractive. Back to the press and screw crown, and the pilot version of the Watch UTC Antoine de Saint Exupery water depth of 6 bar. This is not a museum. Rather, it is a tool attribute &#8220;flight qualified&#8221;, but this always remind us of the discomfort and sacrifice, the heroic pilot as Saint-Exupery, Guillaumet, Mermoz and many other ways to prepare what is now a comfortable mode of travel.</p>
<p>As once again reminded the back engraved. It shows a &#8220;tool&#8221; to express the &#8220;saint benefits&#8221; are also used when referring to the aircraft. It is actually a strong Latécoère 25, referred to as &#8220;the late 25&#8243;, in which he and his colleagues for aviation pilots flying especially in Argentina and Chile. Its first aircraft in Argentina &#8220;Aeroposta&#8221; in 1929, with the pilot exposed to content outside the cabin, including space, a maximum of four passengers, or an equal number of e-mail.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.iwcwiki.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/iwc-pilots-watch-chrono-automatic-edition-top-gun.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-61" title="iwc-pilots-watch-chrono-automatic-edition-top-gun" src="http://www.iwcwiki.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/iwc-pilots-watch-chrono-automatic-edition-top-gun.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="260" /></a></p>
<div id="result_box" dir="ltr">Press Release &#8211; Two-time elite International Whaling Commission in the Top Gun pilot version of the watch has been airborne. Now, followed by the time model, it clearly features: black, masculine &#8211; and built-in extreme service. Its name from the elite at the joystick: the U.S. Navy Top Gun fighter pilot school weapons.</p>
<p>Do not compromise is not to allow any person who wants to be the best. Rather than their own, rather than in his equipment. Combatants in the United States Navy fighter pilot schools are the best weapons in their own areas. International Whaling Commission and the Top Gun pilots watch sports logo, as flight qualification and extremely powerful clocks and watches, also on behalf of the highest professional standards and the operational reserve. In the double-time, this is the first time to take the right-wing in the top category, the 2007 edition of Top Gun to reinforce its commitment to accept now. Viewing time to reach the pilot automatically mean that the two extremes of watches from the International Whaling Commission, now bear the unmistakable characteristics of this range.</p>
<p>What Top Gun model thing in common: they are black. Strong. Very masculine. They have a difficult case, but the lightweight high-tech ceramic materials and convex sapphire glass coating thoroughly. They wear lightweight nylon strap. An extension of its water resistance depth of 6 bar. Operating elements and the back is Matt titanium gray. They bear the logo Top Gun viewing the back and &#8211; with caution &#8211; the left side of the case. Precision mechanical movement from the magnetic field. And their sapphire glass will also survive a sudden drop in air pressure. Language speakers in the wheel well aware of time measurement: authentic cockpit design, white hands and indicators in a black background, bright, and the question of fact. Two small, signal red elements permit rapid inspection functions: small second hand and balances the central second hand &#8211; the form of a small jet fighter. This is a version of Top Gun identifier. As per gram and count not only flight, but also comfortable to wear such a big country, they are attached to the wrist band and ultra-soft.</p>
<p>In addition to what is provided for them: With this new model, not to split the time the second hand now won their wings at the International Whaling Commission is a useful tool for aviation elite. With the overall timing of the recording time up to 12 hours of the different external ceramic double time, the smaller two millimeters (44 mm), there is no third button in the &#8220;10.00&#8243; split seconds function. Dial-up and nature is the same show. It also has a day indicators, as well as the date display inspired by the altimeter in the cockpit. A combination of ceramic and titanium have joined forces here. International Whaling Commission is the first plant to introduce these two advanced materials, unmatched in its durability, into dollars, as early as age 80 in the last century.</p>
<p>Of course, in the pilot&#8217;s watch in this category, Top Gun always mean that the greatest degree of protection of movement of the magnetic field of soft iron inner case. The characteristics of the profession of the International Whaling Commission since the pilot watches mark on the 11th in 1948, the legendary pilot&#8217;s watch did not service the British Royal Air Force as a navigation watch in the cockpit. Also includes, of course, design features to protect through sapphire glass on the sudden drop in air pressure inside the cabin; if there is no such protection mechanism &#8211; introduced at the International Whaling Commission 20 years ago &#8211; watch glass would pop. This is the ultimate robustness of services, processing of nuclear warheads tools diamond zirconia powder and a binding agent, is &#8220;baked&#8221;, the temperature as high as 2000 degrees. This non-magnetic, acid-resistant and impact resistance, light weight, like titanium, particularly Hypoallergenic. It is the extreme needs.</p>
<p>The best schools</p>
<p>U.S. Navy combat pilot who successfully completed this course Top Gun Fallon, Nevada, was surrounded by a halo of invincibility. However, this is not always the case. U.S. Navy fighter weapons school, originally stationed in Miramar, California, from the birth in 1969, after rigorous analysis, we found inadequate, the air combat capability of fighter pilots. Navy answered, and the establishment of Top Gun. The official name of the process, only the most outstanding pilots of the completion of combat, is the U.S. Navy Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor (SFTI).</p>
<p>Top Gun popular word reservations, but. The course focused on aerial dog fights in accordance with actual conditions. In the early days, pilots flew the newly introduced F &#8211; 14 Tomcat and F/A-18 Hornet aircraft types Daredevil the task of interception of their mentor, who uses the turbocharged version of the A &#8211; 4 fighters and F &#8211; 5 slot machines. Training files, eventually adjust to the actual situation, and expanded to include air-conditioning, in order to ground combat.</p>
<p>Top Gun concept has become very successful, the U.S. Air Force pilots sent the best courses, despite the maintenance of an elite pilot training facilities in its own Nellis, Nevada. The actual qualified &#8220;fighter pilot&#8221; is the only step-by-step training program proceeds. This is the fastest response and most courageous military pilots, the real dog fighters and bold rather than cautious pilots. This has been the case, in fact, every military aviation since the first time. Top indeed.</p>
