    I just can't get enough of my Big Pilot Perpetual. It is just such a cool watch. I knew I would love it, I didn't realise how much. I just thought I would post a few pics all together for fun.

    It certainly is one of the best Big Pilot Perpetual Calendars, it fits your wrist very well. Enjoy it!

    Kind regards,

    It's not for everyone, but with that said, it is quite literally the most badass perpetual calendar yet devised by mankind.

    Congrats, brother!

    Jarrod, it's uncanny how well that watch sits on your wrist!

    Some can - some can't ...you simply do!

    Looks great. Wishing you well to wear in good health.

    Looking at your pictures Jarrod I was looking for the best way to describe that cool black beast and then I saw Adam's post, he nailed it - this can only be described as "the most badass perpetual calendar yet devised"!

    And as Mark says, not everybody can wear it but you pull it off, big time:-)

    I once banged my Top Gun Doppel against a metal playground jungle gym so hard it took off paint left a small dent. The watch, however was unharmed.

    I haven't managed to knock it yet and I hope I never will. But after reading Adams experience, I am not too worried. I am ultra careful when I wear it. Having said that, knocking your watches at some point is a fact of life.....

    tell me about it... so clumsy... a good service and polish fixes most things on my steel and titanium watches though. the trick for me on the perpetual would be to not wear it at home for some reason thats where im most dangerous!
