IWC Schaffhausen expands its collection dedicated to the Little Prince with a unique creation: the Big Pilot’s Watch Perpetual Calendar Tourbillon Le Petit Prince. This timepiece blends technical innovation with literary poetry. This new model marks a first for the collection, featuring a blue ceramic case, a remarkable debut for this iconic line.
Limited to just 100 pieces, this exceptional timepiece combines two of haute horlogerie’s most prestigious complications: the perpetual calendar and the flying tourbillon, housed in a generous 46.5 mm case. The deep blue dial is accented with 18-carat 5N gold details, while the signature conical crown and case back ring in gold further enhance the watch’s refined aesthetic.
The IWC 51950 calibre delivers a 7-day power reserve and drives the tourbillon positioned at 12 o’clock, which also functions as a seconds indicator. The transparent sapphire case back reveals a rotor adorned with the silhouette of the Little Prince standing on his asteroid — a poetic and iconic hallmark of this collection.
This new timepiece follows the Big Pilot’s Watch 43 Tourbillon Le Petit Prince, available in platinum and Armor Gold, and reaffirms IWC’s ability to blend technical mastery with literary emotion. A rare watch, designed for discerning collectors as well as lovers of timeless stories.
