IWC Mark XVlll Pilot ref.327009 del 2021

IWC has been a clear leader in developing watches for pilots. In 1994, the company paid tribute to its Mark 11 with a Mark XII (3241) model. This civilian watch was based on the design of the Mark 11 but with a modern automatic movement and a date function. The name "Mark XII" was taken from its military predecessor. To underline the difference between the historic watch and the new collection, IWC used Roman numerals for this model instead of Arabic numerals.

The IWC Mark XII was replaced by several other IWC pilot watches, all designated with the name "Mark". Since 13 and 14 are unlucky numbers in some cultures, IWC in 1999 introduced a Mark XV (IW325301) model, followed by the Mark XVI (IW325501) in 2006, and then the Mark XVII (IW326501) in 2012. All of these were time and date-only pilot watches, and they all share a familiar resemblance.

Given this strong heritage, in 2016 the Mark XVIII had a role to play. It is never easy to follow an icon, let alone an entire generation of iconic pilot watches.
