IWC Pilot's Watch Performance Chronograph 41 41.1mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 41.1 mm case suggests

IWC Pilot's Watch Performance Chronograph 41 41.1mm measures 50 mm lug-to-lug on a 41.1 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.22 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 83% of the 8,093 watches in this database and longer than 49% of the 43 IWC watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 56 mm (2.20 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 67 mm (2.64 in) it starts to look compact. Below 50 mm (1.97 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
