IWC Tribute To 3705 Pilot Chronograph - Ceratanium - Full Set/Near Mint
- Unit price
- /per
Inspired by the brand’s efforts to modernize its pilot’s collection in the 1990s, the IW3879 is a 2021 limited edition of 1,000 pieces created as a tribute to the 1994 IWC ref. 3705. When originally introduced, the 3705 was met with limited enthusiasm due to its unconventional black ceramic case, but its rarity and forward-thinking design have since earned it a strong following among collectors. The Tribute to 3705 seeks to capture the character of that once-overlooked reference while bringing it into a contemporary context.
The modern interpretation measures 41 mm in diameter—larger than the original 39 mm but smaller than many current pilot chronographs—and features a case crafted from Ceratanium, IWC’s proprietary titanium-ceramic composite. The dial remains notably faithful to the original design, retaining the straight-cut hour hand, Arabic numerals, and classic subdial layout, with only subtle modern updates. By avoiding artificial aging and staying close to the original aesthetic, the IW3879 stands as a thoughtful homage to an important chapter in IWC’s pilot watch history. This example comes as a complete set from new with warranty papers dated to '22. It remains in near mint condition with no notable wear. It also includes a framed b&w drawing that was gifted to the original owner at the boutique which is not normally available for purchase.
