The IWC Reference 3705 may very well be the absolute definition of Neo-Vintage perfection.

Combining the traditional function-forward elements of pilot's watch design with a sensibly sized 39mm case, robust automatic movement, Tritium luminous indices and hands, and the groundbreaking first application of ceramic casing material for a sports watch, the 3705 was born a classic when it was introduced in 1994. To say that it was ahead of its time is most certainly an understatement.

Since its introduction, ceramic cases have been used extensively by IWC and other manufactures, but generally in (much) larger case sizes. As such, the 3705 started as something of a cult classic and has found widespread appreciation in recent years, with values doubling or even tripling across the board.

Then, in 2021 IWC released this - a tribute to the original 3705 from the 1990s. Limited to just 1000 pieces worldwide, this contemporary take on the cult classic offers everything that we love about the original, with just a few changes. The case size grows from 39mm to 41mm and is finished in IWC's proprietary Ceratanium. Additionally, it utilizes IWC's Calibre 69380 and Superluminova for the luminous material throughout the dial and handset.

And that is it. A very faithful tribute indeed.

In near mint condition and accompanied by its full kit, this piece, like its predecessor, is sure to become a modern classic. Don't miss this one!
