If you are unsure about a Big Pilot, this will help get you over the hump

This is a review of an IWC Big Pilot 5009

At first I thought the BP was too big and wouldn’t work well as a daily wearer. But something kept me interested in it. The watch stuck with me and I had to get one.

First, the overall quality is top notch. The watch lacks nothing. This watch commands a high price and the level of detail comes with it. I really like the strap, the tapering is spot on and leather is fantastic.

Second, the size can suit any wrist. I would put aside any feeling about wrist size. It will fit a smaller wrist just fine. Your enjoyment wearing it will surpass the thought of wrist size.

Third, this can be worn as a daily wearer just fine. It can go both dressy and sporty. It is a versatile piece.

I would say I was on the fence at first, and very happy I made the choice to get the BP.

Check out the lume at night, the pic was taken at night. I did not expect a decent lume, I am impressed.
