IWC Mechanical Flieger Chronograph Ref.3706 Cal.7922 Automatic winding made in the 1990s 😊

It was produced from 1994 to 2004.

"Flieger" means "pilot" in German.

The soft iron inner case, which began with the Mark 11, is also firmly implemented in this model, and it would have functioned perfectly as a military watch.

The reason for using a soft iron inner case is that it is more resistant to magnetic fields since there are various precision machines inside the cockpit.

The soft iron case is there to prevent this.

The case size is 39mm, which is just the right size for a modern wristwatch.

Dive watches tend to be quite large, while pilot watches tend to be around 40mm in size.

The movement is cal. 7922, which is based on Valjoux Cal. 7750 and converted by IWC.

As a result, the case is 15mm thick, but this movement is also used in the Top Gun model found in Porsche Design Orfina watches.

The thickness is due to the robust design of the rotor, which prevents it from coming off, even in pilot watches that require intense operation.

Looking at the movement, you can see that it is gold-plated, demonstrating the careful handiwork of IWC.

The crown has a fish mark, which indicates that the case was waterproof at the time.

The dial is a matte black dial.

The hands are white pencil hands (the hour hand has a cut tip).

The index is Arabic index.

I personally like the cut-tip hour hand among IWC watches, and that's because the IWC Mark 11 uses it.

This hand is rarely seen on other watches and was probably first adopted by IWC.

It seems to inherit the design of the Mark 11, which can be said to be the ancestor of military watches, and it has a historical appeal.

Also, please take a look at the date display, which is written in Italian.

Dates are generally written in English, but this one is written in rare Italian, giving it a sophisticated and stylish impression.

The design is as simple as possible and pursues functionality, as is characteristic of IWC, so even when worn on the wrist, it feels like a part of the watch.

This is a rare watch that is both well-made and beautifully designed, making it a must-have model for anyone looking to add to their military watch collection.

The strap has now been replaced, but we still have the original IWC buckle, so we will enclose that as well.
