Pilot's watch by IWC with UTC indication


Back in the 1930 years IWC outfitted a watch type specifically for aviation. The abbreviation UTC stands for Universal Time Coordinated. For travelers who in quick succession change continents and time-zones or communicate around the globe, it offers a practical help to inform with their 24-hour indication window on the universal time, based on the globally binding GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), and the current time, even when trespassing the date limit.
