Limited to just 100 pieces, this timepiece embodies cutting-edge engineering with its revolutionary SPRIN-g PROTECT® shock absorber system and a design inspired by the iconic black and PETRONAS green colours of the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team.
More than just a watch, it is a tribute to precision, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence—both on the racetrack and on the wrist.
Unmatched Durability with SPRIN-g PROTECT®
This timepiece features IWC’s groundbreaking SPRIN-g PROTECT® shock absorber system, designed to protect the movement from extreme shocks. The cantilever spring, crafted from bulk metallic glass (BMG), absorbs high g-forces generated by impacts, ensuring the watch’s precision remains uncompromised even in the most demanding conditions, much like those faced in Formula One™ racing.
Ceratanium® Case: Lightweight, Robust, and Scratch-Resistant
The case and crown are made from Ceratanium®, an exclusive IWC material that combines the lightness of titanium with the scratch resistance of ceramic. Its sleek black finish, paired with a grainy textured dial, offers a perfect balance of sporty aesthetics and luxurious appeal.
Iconic Design with PETRONAS Green Accents
Inspired by the colours of the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team, the watch features Super-LumiNova® accents in PETRONAS green on the shock absorber spring and hands, glowing brightly in low-light conditions. This detail not only enhances visibility but also reinforces the unique collaboration between IWC and the renowned racing team.
Reliable Performance with 120-Hour Power Reserve
Powered by the in-house IWC Calibre 32101, this watch offers an impressive 120-hour power reserve. Its double pawl automatic winding system ensures efficient energy transfer, while the blackened plates, bridges, and oscillating mass perfectly complement the all-black design. The sapphire glass case back, adorned with Toto Wolff’s signature, adds an exclusive touch to this limited-edition timepiece.
Enhanced Comfort with Dual Rubber Straps
For ultimate comfort, the watch comes with an integrated green rubber strap and an additional black rubber strap, allowing wearers to switch between styles effortlessly while maintaining comfort during any activity, on or off the track.
Limited to only 100 pieces, the IWC Big Pilot’s Watch Shock Absorber XPL Toto Wolff x Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One™ Team is a testament to resilience, cutting-edge technology, and the spirit of motorsport. It’s not just a timepiece—it’s a symbol of endurance and excellence.
