    The 2022 Pilot Automatic Edition Laureus Sport for Good was announced some
    time ago under embargo and it was officially released in October 2021.

    Now I thought - This will make a perfect birthday watch for me! So i ordered
    one immediately and requested a special number to commemorate my wedding
    anniversary. The Boutique told me delivery would be early January 2022, but i
    was suprised to get a call in early December that it had arrived :o)

    The campfire drawing on the caseback is the winning entry from 12 year old
    Melissa Mejia Castilla

    Introducing Pilot Watch Automatic Laureuas #149

    Just wanted to add that I feel this watch flies a little under the radar and
    is technically significant as it is the first example of the calibre 32111
    used in production. Also, it is the second calibre 32 with the 5-day power
    reserve - afer the shock-absorber. I am curious as to how this new movement
    compares to the calibre 82 movements. The cal 82 uses the Pellaton winding
    system, adds some ceramic parts and is a bit larger, but is it a better
    movement? I am really liking what I see frm the cal 32111 and look forward to
    more watches with this movement. Now all that is needed is an antimagnetic
    hairspring!

    Simply needed to add that I feel this watch flies a little under the radar and
    is in fact huge as it is the primary illustration of the type 32111
    utilized underway. Additionally, it is the second
    type 32 with the 5-day power
    hold - afer the safeguard. I'm interested with respect to how this new
    development
    looks at to the type 82 developments. The cal 82 utilizations the Pellaton
    winding
    framework, adds a few artistic parts and is somewhat bigger, yet is it a
    superior
    development? I'm truly preferring what I see frm the cal 32111 and anticipate
    more watches with this development. Presently everything necessary is an
    antimagnetic
    hairspring!

    Major well-done stamp, that is a beautiful Laureus piece and my cherished

    decent number
