With this watch, IWC pays tribute to the writer, journalist, poet, aristocrat, and one of the pioneering aviators, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. With homage to his most famous book titled "Le Petite Prince", the author and French Air Force pilot Antoine Saint-Exupery is honored for his work. Before the second world war, he was a pilot who worked the postal routes from Europe, South America, and even the African continent. When the war broke out, he joined the French Air Force to conduct missions until 1940 and the armistice of France with Germany.

This model is the Chronograph version of the Le Petit Prince Edition in mint condition and full set. In January 2025, this watch underwent a water-resistance service where all its gaskets were replaced, ensuring it remained waterproof and protected from moisture. A true collector's item for all watch collectors who love Pilot watches with history!
