Catalogue Essay
This IWC’s Big Pilot’s Watch Annual Calendar Limited Edition “Le Petit Prince” brings the famous, bewildering tale of “Le Petit Prince “to life. An iconic bestseller written by poet and aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the protagonist’s journey to earth is depicted through beautiful, imaginative details on reverse side of the watch. Featuring a midnight blue dial with luminescence, and a transparent case back revealing the little prince gazing wondrously into the sky, standing on the instantly-recognizable asteroid, which is the rotor of the movement and revolves poetically around the axis.
