Introducing the IWC Pilots Watch Automatic Edition ‘Laureus Sport For Good’

As you might have already seen throughout the year, 2021 is the year of the pilots watches for IWC and their latest release is no exception.

The cooperation between IWC and the Laureus Sport For Good foundation started way back in 2006. Subsequently, IWC created a yearly special limited edition piece to support the foundation. Obviously, a percentage of the proceeds from every IWC Pilot’s Watch Automatic Edition “Laureus Sport for Good” Edition will be donated to the foundation.

Before every launch there is a Laureus drawing competition. Kids from all over the world can participate. The children can submit their proposals and the final 3 are chosen by a jury. The public votes for the final winner. IWC will have this picture engraved on the case back for each piece.
