IWC Pilot's Watch Automatic Top Gun

IW326906

IWC has made TOP GUN watches under a US Navy licence it has held since 2005, and the black ceramic Pilot's Watch Automatic TOP GUN is the plainest of them, showing the time and the date. It first appeared in 2019 as IW326901, on IWC's 32110 calibre with 72 hours of reserve. IW326906 is the current reference, which IWC's dealers list with the newer 32111 and 120 hours, a full five days. The case is 41 mm of matte black ceramic, rated to 60 m. Worn & Wound's review of the 2019 watch noted a titanium caseback engraved with the TOP GUN logo and measured the lugs at just over 50 mm tip to tip, which is long for a 41 mm watch. The same review found that version's leather-backed fabric strap too stiff to sit comfortably on wrists under about seven inches.

Written 10 October 2026 from Worn & Wound's review of the 2019 version, IWC's 2019 press release and Watches of Switzerland's listing.
