Swiss Ammo Straps for IWC Big Pilots:
Swiss Ammo Straps for IWC Big Pilots – Hi strap lovers, I am happy to share some photos from my great customer Benjamin of his and his Father’s IWC Big Pilot watches both featuring our unique ‘Fully Integrated Fit’ (FIF). This unique fitment includes our exclusive ‘Thick Curved Lug System’ (TCLS) fitment between the lugs, after which the width of the strap is notched out to the full width of the lugs, after which these straps taper back to our 22mm ‘D9’ logo Thumbnail buckles.
Benjamin’s IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calander:
Shown here in a Swiss Ammo strap made from an Ammunition pouche dated 1943, this IWC Large Pilot’s watch is a real monster in terms of complications including – Perpetual calendar with displays for the date, day, month, year in four digits and perpetual moon phase for the northern and southern hemispheres, 7 days power reserve with a Power reserve display. The IWC Big Pilot Perpetual Calander is a lot of watch.
Benjamin’s strap when newly arrived in December 2021:
Benjamin’s strap today, shows some patina after wearing it since December 2021 – as you can see the color has darkened with wear but otherwise, it’s still in pretty good nick, given that by his own admission, he’s been wearing it often:
The Father’s Big Pilot:
Just having arrived and still looking brand new, Benjamin’s father’s 1966 Ammo strap is made from a very light tan (a rare color for Swiss Ammo pouches), but otherwise is the same basic design:
