The IWC Pilot’s Watch Venturer Vertical Drive IW328601 is a groundbreaking tool watch engineered for the rigors of human spaceflight and certified for use on future commercial space stations. Crafted from a high-performance combination of white zirconium oxide ceramic and IWC's proprietary Ceratanium®, this timepiece offers unparalleled durability against extreme temperature fluctuations and intense gravitational forces.
  • Innovative Vertical Drive System: Features a patent-pending rotating bezel that controls all watch functions—including winding and time-setting—eliminating the need for a traditional crown to allow for easy operation with gloves.
  • Spaceflight Certified Materials: The 44.3mm case utilizes white ceramic while the bezel and case back are made of Ceratanium®, a material that blends the lightness of titanium with the scratch resistance of ceramic.
  • Dual-Time Capability: Equipped with a 24-hour jumping hour GMT hand, it allows astronauts and travelers to track a reference time (such as UTC) alongside a second local time zone.
  • Extended Power Reserve: Powered by the IWC-manufactured 32722 caliber, the watch boasts a robust 120-hour power reserve to ensure reliable performance during long-duration missions.
  • High-Visibility Dial: The matte black dial is designed for maximum legibility with green Super-LumiNova® on the primary hands and a blue GMT hand that pays tribute to the Earth’s horizon as seen from space.
  • Extreme Durability: Tested by Vast to withstand forces up to 10g and temperatures ranging from -150°C to over 100°C.
  • Professional Grade Strap: Comes fitted with an integrated white FKM rubber strap, chosen for its excellent thermal insulation and resistance to UV radiation.
