    Dear fellow collectors,

    finally I am able to share with you, what started as a covid project of mine! Inspired by Thang's BigPilot.watch database, my goal was to created something similar not only for all TOPGUN pieces ever made, I also wanted to include the official Squadron pieces which a lot of people are unfamiliar with as there is no advertisement from IWC at all. These watches are only available to former or active members of the respective squadrons.

    I hope you enjoy this little database and would be happy to hear your feedback!

    Thanks,

    Patrick

    Dear Patrick

    congratulations for this valuable research tool.

    Only one short remark: The so-called "Mk. X" has nothing to do with aviation. It was a watch the British Army = ground troops.

    Regards

    Th. Koenig
