It was introduced in December of 2015 in celebration of the opening of IWC's Rodeo Drive boutique. IWC launched the Big Pilot's Watch Edition "Boutique Rodeo Drive" IW502003 on December 1st 2015 in celebration of the opening of its Rodeo Drive Boutique, yet we didn't have a chance to handle it until this year's visit to SIHH.  This 250-piece limited edition sports a case in ceramic & titanium, and a vibrant, sunburst blue dial. Now that we have seen the full 2016 collection, we can happily say that the Rodeo Drive proved to be a sign of things to come: most importantly the seemingly trivial yet highly anticipated return of #9. IWC is available both in our luxury eBoutique as well as at Ace & Spyer Amsterdam. Ace Jewelers is Authorized Dealer for IWC watches. More information on the IWC Big Pilot's Watch Edition "Boutique Rodeo Drive" IW502003 is available over at WatchBase.
