IWC Pilot's Chronograph Le Petit Prince REVIEW

Inspired by his passion for high altitudes, his courage and his many notable achievements, IWC; It pays tribute to Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, a writer, journalist, poet, aristocrat and one of the pioneer aviators, winner of many of France's most prestigious literary awards, with the IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph Le Petit Prince, model no iw377714.

This chronograph with a blue dial is undoubtedly a Pilot's watch at its core; This is a feature that makes him common with Antoine de St-Exupéry. As a tribute to author and French Air Force pilot Antoine Saint-Exupery's most famous book, "Le Petit Prince", his works, translated into more than two hundred and fifty different languages ​​and chosen as the best book of the 20th century in France, are honored with a Swiss-made IWC Schaffhausen watch.

Before World War II, he was a successful commercial pilot working on mail lines from Europe to South America and even the African continent. At the outbreak of war, he joined the French Air Force to conduct reconnaissance missions until 1940 and the armistice that France signed with Germany.

From the upper tip of its stainless steel pin buckle to the tip of its brown leather strap with white stitching, the IWC reference iw377714 is a modern reflection of a literary icon of a long-gone era. An era when the scorched European lands were covered with debris and bomb fragments from World War II planes. An age where people fought for freedom and war meant something to a country. It was a time in our not-too-distant history when people fought on the front lines rather than behind a computer screen, when everything was analog and mechanical, not digital.

IWC Pilot's watch with chronograph; It is a modern horological déja-vu of a time when a successful writer, a famous aviator, poet, journalist and aristocrat renounced their personal achievements and bravely defended freedom. After France signed an armistice with Germany, Antoine was discharged from the Air Force. He traveled to the United States to persuade the American government to take action to help defeat the Nazis. During the more than two years he spent in North America, he wrote three of his most important works.

Every fiber of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's being was that of a pilot. This was clearly visible in all his literary works. When he suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth during a flying mission, there was much speculation as to what fate he might have suffered and what happened to him and his aircraft.

This continued until 1998, when a bracelet bearing his and his wife's names was found at sea. This news swept through France like a tidal wave, and the French people became extremely emotional when they heard of this discovery. At the time, Antoine was already a national hero, and his iconic status led some to question the veracity of this claim, as the bracelet was found in an area not included in the flight path. When they found parts of the Lockheed P-38 aircraft scattered over a wide area off the coast of Marseille in May 2000, it took the French government three years to recover all of the plane's remains and another year to identify them as the confirmed remains of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's plane.

Although Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's story ends on a bittersweet note.
