The IWC Fliegerchronograph was one of the first ceramic made chronographs (an earlier model of the Da Vinci did exist) and quickly found a cult following among IWC collectors. Known to be extremely difficult to work with and prone to scratching combined with a high retail price at the time of launch, some estimate its total 2/3 years production run to around 1000 pieces. This particular example is in close to new condition showing no scratches, perfect case numbers on the caseback, a mint original dial with nice matching patina to the dial and hands and as it should, German calendar disks as the watch was sold through Bucherer. Without a doubt the most collectible “youngtimer” watch by IWC as reflected by current collectors demand.
