IWC Mark Spitfire Red Bronze Clone – Vintage Spirit in Military Elegance
The IWC Mark Spitfire Red Bronze Clone brings together aviation heritage and vintage aesthetics in a meticulously crafted 1:1 replica. Inspired by the legendary Spitfire aircraft, this model combines a rich green dial, red bronze case, and high-performance automatic movement to deliver a timepiece that captures both ruggedness and refined detail.
Distinctive Red Bronze Case
Crafted from red bronze, the 39mm case of this clone offers a warm, rugged look that evolves with time. As the bronze develops a unique patina, each piece gains its own character—a living testament to your adventures. The brushed finish enhances its tool-watch charm, while the ergonomic profile ensures comfortable wear across all wrist sizes.
Military Green Dial with Spitfire Precision
The olive-green dial pays homage to cockpit instrumentation, featuring oversized white Arabic numerals for optimal legibility. The classic triangle marker at 12 o’clock, bold sword hands, and clean minute track reinforce the pilot’s instrument aesthetic. A date window at 3 o’clock balances form and function, while the subtle red “Spitfire” text adds a bold identity to the dial.
High-Performance Automatic Movement
Powering this IWC clone is a TOP-level 9015 automatic movement, precisely calibrated to mirror the original IWC 32110 calibre’s functions and winding behavior. It features bi-directional winding, smooth sweep second hand, and approximately 42 hours of power reserve. The rotor design and regulation offer stable timekeeping with minimal deviation.
Back Case Details
The titanium alloy caseback is laser-engraved with a vivid depiction of the iconic Spitfire fighter plane, reflecting the watch’s aviation DNA. This design faithfully replicates the official IWC version, giving collectors an authentic visual connection to the original series.
Strap & Wearability
This clone is paired with a genuine Italian calfskin leather strap in rich brown, offering a perfect complement to the red bronze case. The stitching pattern mimics IWC’s factory style, while the titanium buckle matches the rugged tone and offers secure closure. The 20mm lug width allows for easy strap customization.
Craftsmanship & Clone Accuracy
- Case dimensions: 39mm diameter × 10.6mm thickness
- 1:1 case shape and dial layout, indistinguishable from the original at first glance
- Bronze aging behavior replicates the patina process of genuine models
- Mark XVIII-style oversized markers, date window, and triangle marker placement are 100% aligned with the original
Water Resistance & Care Recommendations
- Water Resistance: Rated 5ATM (50 meters); suitable for daily use and occasional splashes, but not recommended for swimming or diving.
- Usage Tips: Avoid exposure to hot water, steam, and chemicals to preserve the red bronze’s natural finish.
- Cleaning: Rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly if exposed to salt or sweat. A polishing cloth can reduce oxidation for a cleaner look, or leave the patina for a vintage vibe.
- Maintenance: Have the gaskets and movement serviced every 1–2 years to maintain performance and water resistance.
