The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 TOP GUN Mojave Desert features a 41-millimetre case made of sand-colored ceramic. Developed in collaboration with Pantone®, this ceramic color was inspired by the flight suits of naval aviators and the barren desert landscape around China Lake, home to the U.S. Navy’s famous TOPGUN flight school. Engineering ceramic is remarkably light and scratch-resistant, making it the perfect material for a pilot’s watch. The brown dial with subdued indices and numerals and the beige rubber strap with a textile inlay perfectly match the color of the ceramic case. The case back with the characteristic “TOP GUN” engraving, the crown and the push-buttons are made of titanium. At work inside the case is the IWC-manufactured 69380 calibre movement. This mechanical chronograph in classic column-wheel design was engineered with an uncompromising focus on robustness, reliability and precision. It features the IWC-typical vertical dial layout, which places the stopped minutes directly at the 12 for easier legibility. In addition, there is a day date aperture at 3 o’clock. An inner case construction made of soft iron protects the movement from the effects of magnetic fields, and the front glass is specially secured to remain in place even in the event of a sudden drop of air pressure.

Give your watch a quick check on a regular basis, wiping down the face and bracelet with a soft cloth, checking the leather on a strap, and making sure that the strap or bracelet is firmly attached to the watch face. Also, while many watches are water resistant, few are truly waterproof, so if you find that moisture or dust has penetrated the case of your watch, bring it into your local Ben Bridge store where we can have one of our watchmakers clean it out for you.

Our best advice on watch maintenance is to never attempt do-it-yourself repairs, no matter how handy you are or how good the instructions are on Youtube. Watches are super complex little machines and only an expert watchmaker should be trusted to get a watch back into working condition. Attempts by an untrained repair person may seriously damage the watch and can even invalidate factory warranties.

In general, having your watch checked regularly by your Personal Jeweler or watchmaker and serviced according to the manufacturer's guidelines should keep it in excellent shape.
