Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Lake Tahoe

IWC Introduces Large Pilot’s Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Lake Tahoe White Ceramic high quality copy watches

IWC Schaffhausen completes its “Colors of TOP GUN” collection with the large pilot’s perpetual calendar TOP GUN Lake Tahoe watch. The new version features a 46.5 mm white ceramic case, black dial and black hands with white Super-LumiNova®. Developed in the 1980s, the IWC Legendary Perpetual Calendar automatically recognizes months of different lengths and leap years. The timepiece is powered by the IWC-manufactured 52615 caliber and can be seen through the sapphire case back.

In 2022, IWC launches its “COOLS OF TOP GUN” collection, including several pilot Discount copy watches in striking new ceramic colours. With the launch of the large pilot’s perpetual calendar TOP GUN Lake Tahoe (Ref. IW503008), the Swiss luxury watchmaker has now added a white ceramic model to its collection. A ceramic color designated by IWC and Pantone as “IWC Lake Tahoe,” inspired by the white livery and winter landscape surrounding freshwater Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe, which lies between California and Nevada, is a mountainous area frequently flown by pilots from the nearby TOPGUN flight school. The striking design includes a jet-black dial with black hands with white Super-LumiNova®, a stainless steel crown and case-back ring, and a white textured rubber strap.

Extensive Materials Expertise
White ceramic is a symbol of IWC’s comprehensive expertise in advanced performance materials. Back in the 1980s, the company experimented with the color shortly after introducing its first watches with black zirconia ceramic cases. White ceramics are created in a complex manufacturing process in which zirconia is mixed with other metal oxides and fired at high temperatures in an oven. Ceramic is extremely scratch-resistant and very light, making it the perfect material for pilot watches.

Highly Engineered Complications
The Large Pilot’s Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN Lake Tahoe is equipped with a legendary perpetual calendar complication. It was developed by Kurt Klaus in the 1980s and since then it has been steadily improved several times both mechanically and functionally. A complex mechanical program automatically recognizes the different lengths of months and leap years, requiring no manual adjustment until 2100. The patented dual moon phase display shows the moon as seen from the northern and southern hemispheres. Thanks to a special reduction gear train, its accuracy will only deviate by one day after 577.5 years. The calendar module is driven by a single night switch pulse from the IWC-manufactured caliber 52615, which is equipped with a Pellaton winding system and a 7-day power reserve.
