This extremely rare Pilot watch is rarely seen and especially in original condition such as this one. Stainless/steel case, rotating bezel with radium triangle, snap back case and acrylic crystal. Diameter 38 mm. Black original dial with radium numerals. Works perfectly The watch come with an Extract of Archives from IWC (2009) confirming delivery on 24 June 1943
