IWC Refreshes Team Watch for Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One

IWC has just launched a new watch designed specifically for the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One team, which includes the star driver, Lewis Hamilton. Known as the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team, this timepiece was originally created to celebrate the inaugural Miami Grand Prix that took place last year.

Crafted from lightweight titanium and featuring the team’s signature green colour inspired by their title sponsor, Petronas, this watch is a distinctive reference in the IWC Pilot’s Watch collection and a nod to the brand’s connection with the world of motorsports. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Schaffhausen watchmaker’s partnership with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas team.

In preparation for the second instalment of the Miami Grand Prix, IWC has refreshed the team watch with a bold “Miami Pink” strap instead of the original green, making it perfectly suited for the summer weather of the race, which is set to begin on May 5, 2023. The watch is available online and at the brand’s boutique in Miami for a limited period of time, and it also comes equipped with the original green strap.
