With the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Le Petit Prince, IWC Schaffhausen continues its tradition of pilot’s watches dedicated to Saint-Exupéry’s world-famous story. The 41-millimetre case is crafted from white zirconium oxide ceramic – a lightweight, scratch-resistant material with a smooth, silky finish. The case forms a striking contrast to the deep blue sunburst dial characteristic of these special editions. Featuring a subtle gradient effect, crisp white numerals and indices, and rhodium-plated hands filled with Super-LumiNova®, the chronograph combines refined elegance with outstanding legibility. The titanium case back is engraved with a lovingly detailed depiction of the Little Prince, bringing the watch’s poetic inspiration to life.

Powering the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Le Petit Prince is the IWC-manufactured 69381 calibre. This mechanical chronograph movement, engineered in a classic column-wheel design, enables precise measurement of stop times of up to 12 hours. The hours and minutes are displayed in IWC’s characteristic dial layout, with two vertically aligned totalizers at 9 o’clock and 12 o’clock. The bidirectional pawl winding system efficiently builds up a power reserve of 46 hours.

The watch is fitted with the practical EasX-CHANGE® system, allowing the white rubber strap to be exchanged at the touch of a button.
