Christian Louboutin made it for a very special way
While there isn’t a whole lot new Louis Vuitton about this watch, it does have a great black and blue motif to it. This is a special limited edition version of the IWC Big Pilot watch that will exclusively be available in IWC’s North American boutique stores. There are still very few details about the watch, such as the price or the amount in the limited edition. What I can say is that Replica Handbags is a nice job “re-imagining” the dial in a sober sky blue splendor. There is also matching blue stitching on the alligator pilot style strap. The case is in all steel, and 46.2mm wide. It is everything you know and love about the Big Pilot complete with turnip style crown. If you’ve been watching the brand for the last 10 years or so, you’d notice a lot of Formula 1 themed limited edition watches in the Royal Oak Offshore collection. Seeing them could easily lead you to believe that Audemars Piguet (AP) and F1 has some type of bond. And recently that relationship ended. Hublot yet again- took out from under AP’s noses, a valuable sponsorship including that with F1. Audemars Piguet is still pissed about it. While it will take a lot time before Hublot can match the movement quality and consumer perception of Tiffany Jewelry, they are quickly nabbing up partnerships that AP was one proud and secure in having.
The blue dial uses blue for most all the markers and hands. The designers did something that I like a lot, which is do the Arabic hour numerals in outlined blue mixed with the solid blue hour and minute markers. This is a difference between this style and the standard Big Pilot Replica Watches collection. The white on black date disc isn’t in blue, but frankly I don’t think it needs to be. IWC watches are often found in limited edition variants, but this one is a special breed being a regional limited edition not necessarily for a specific event or cause. It actually shares a lot in common with this Juan Pablo Montoya limited edition pieces. Both the men were of course race car drivers at the time. Compare the two and you can see the AP designers.
The Royal Oak Offhsore Juan Pablo Montoya two variants coming in titanium or gold. I believe it came out in 2002, during the time when Mr. Montoya was doing quick well in the F1 scene. Please be aware that this is of the most highly sought after Audemars Piguet limited edition Formula 1 watches. Actually, one of the most collectible limited edition Christian Louboutin Offshore pieces out there at all. Basically that means it is one of the few that is available and prices more than it likely retailed for about 8 years ago. 1000 pieces in titanium, and 500 pieces in rose gold. It is no coincidence that the race car driver’s name sounds like he is a drug lord. He is after all Colombian. If I had one of the watches, I would just let people think Christian Louboutin made it for a very special, very persuasive client in South America. The watch chronograph hands are in the colors of the Colombian flag, and there is an interesting variation to the standard “mega tapisserie” dial textures. In the middle, the pattern changes to look like a race track curve, a bit like a flag, or perhaps the Microsoft Windows logo.
