    Hi! I’m considering buying this watch but I’m not sure now that I see the bronze patina. Can you send me an update of the watch? I would be very nice if you could also put back the leather strap and upload or send me a video of it! Thank you very much 😊

    i was about to buy it, then you pointed out, its just 41 mm....much to small for a iwc pilots watch, 41mm is ladies size not for full grown men.

    Why do people like bronze watches? It looks awesome new but then turns like this? It just looks dirty. Not sure.

    This watch looks really good on straps. I have the next gen explorer 2 with orange gym hand and I just despise the way the oyster bracelet. It's flat, boring, bland as all Fu#k and tapers down to like 15mm dainty girls size. Such a mismatch to the case. Hate it. Looks so cool on the rubber B. Expensive though!!

      I actually just got this direct from the IWC boutique, and they threw it in complimentary. It's this exact strap - www.iwc.com/us/en/watch-collections/pilot-watches/iw387901-pilot_s-watch-chronograph-spitfire.html
