Iwc Big Pilot Replica made a bold move at the end of the year by releasing Odysseus. It was the first time the brand had ever produced a watch in stainless steel. There have been limited editions and unique pieces made of steel, but the 2019 Odysseus is the first serially produced Iwc Big Pilot Replica timepiece in stainless steel.
The luxury watchmaker Glashutte will introduce the second model of the Odysseus line for 2020. This time, it is moving away from the "steel sport watch" segment that they entered last year, and returning to their mainstay: precious metal.
The design is identical to the steel Odysseus that was introduced six months ago. The case is still 40.5mm wide and 11.1mm thick, but this time the material has changed from steel to white gold. The two angular 'pushers' on the case side perfectly surround the screwed-down crown, and highlight the prominent shape of this three-part white-gold case. Remember that the pushers were used to correct oversized date and day displays.hellorolex.watch The case finishing is in line with what Iwc Big Pilot Replica has become known for. The watch's external complexity is achieved by a playful combination of chamfers and brushed surfaces. The watch is powered by the L155.1 DATOMATIC manufacture calibre, which offers a 50-hour reserve.
The dial is grey now and has an embossed groove in a direction different from last year's Odysseus. The previous model featured a circular pattern below the hour marks and on the second dial. Here, the pattern is oriented towards the center of each dial. The textured dials look stunning when paired with matte glossy inner surfaces. The bevelled argente chapter ring features a red 60 at 12 o’clock to add colour to the monochrome overall look.
Second, the watch does not have an integrated metal band. Instead, it offers a rubber or leather strap. Many collectors commented that when the Odysseus was launched last year,Rolex Datejust Replica it would feel different on a rubber or leather strap. Their prayers have been answered. Rubber straps add a sporty feel and feature air ducts inside to improve comfort.
Others may feel that the brand has missed a chance to offer the watch with a stainless-steel case, which, when paired up with the rubber band, would be a fantastic proposition for the summer months. We can only pray that our patience is rewarded, as this will cement the Iwc Big Pilot Replica Odysseus watch as a great choice for collectors who want to swim in their Lange watches while wearing them.
