Pilot "Black Aces"

The IWC Pilot's Watch Automatic "Black Aces", reference IW326905, is a tribute to one of the most storied squadrons in naval aviation history, the 41st Fighter Attack Squadron, known as the "Black Aces", rendered in a watch that is as stealthy and striking as its namesake. This certified pre-owned example from 2024 is offered in excellent condition and comes with its full original set, including box, papers, and all original accessories.

Crafted in a combination of titanium and ceramic, the IW326905 presents a matte black case measuring 41mm that absorbs light rather than reflecting it, giving the watch an intense, tactical presence on the wrist. The contrast with the dial could not be more dramatic, and that is entirely the point.

The full lume white dial is one of the most distinctive in the IWC catalogue, bathed entirely in luminous material for maximum legibility in any condition, with bold Arabic numerals and the iconic Black Aces squadron patch at 6 o'clock adding a layer of military heritage and collector appeal that makes this reference genuinely special. Bold, purposeful, and impossible to overlook.

Powering the watch is the IWC Calibre 32100, an in-house automatic movement with hacking seconds and a solid 72-hour power reserve. Reliable, precise, and entirely developed within the IWC manufacture in Schaffhausen.

The watch is water resistant to 60 metres and fitted with a strap and deployment buckle that complement the tactical aesthetic of the case perfectly.

Available now at Minty Watches, this certified pre-owned luxury watch is a rare find for collectors of pre-owned luxury timepieces in Geneva who appreciate military heritage and exceptional design in equal measure.
