The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Le Petit Prince unites the timeless fascination of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s famous tale with the exceptional material properties and distinctive aesthetic of white ceramic.

With the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Le Petit Prince, IWC Schaffhausen continues its tradition of pilot’s watches dedicated to Saint-Exupéry’s world-famous story. The 41-millimetre case is crafted from white zirconium oxide ceramic – a lightweight, scratch-resistant material with a smooth, silky finish. The case forms a striking contrast to the deep blue sunburst dial characteristic of these special editions. Featuring a subtle gradient effect, crisp white numerals and indices, and rhodium-plated hands filled with Super-LumiNova®, the chronograph combines refined elegance with outstanding legibility. The titanium case back is engraved with a lovingly detailed depiction of the Little Prince, bringing the watch’s poetic inspiration to life.

Powering the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Le Petit Prince is the IWC-manufactured 69381 calibre. This mechanical chronograph movement, engineered in a classic column-wheel design, enables precise measurement of stop times of up to 12 hours. The hours and minutes are displayed in IWC’s characteristic dial layout, with two vertically aligned totalizers at 9 o’clock and 12 o’clock. The bidirectional pawl winding system efficiently builds up a power reserve of 46 hours.

The watch is fitted with the practical EasX-CHANGE® system, allowing the white rubber strap to be exchanged at the touch of a button.
