As part of its lineup of novelties at this year’s Watches & Wonders in Geneva, IWC has announced a trio of special pieces in connection with this summer’s forthcoming Brad Pitt blockbuster, F1. Part of online fake IWC’s Pilot’s Watch Chronograph collection, the timepieces celebrate racing in a subdued way with minimal branding for the film’s fictional racing team, APXGP, on the straps and casebacks. Available in two variants of the traditional steel (41mm and 43mm), as well as the new(ish) Performance Chronograph configuration in all gold, these racing UK 1:1 wholesale replica watches are the opening salvo in what is sure to be a relentless promotional campaign for the biggest film of summer 2025.

As mentioned, the new best online IWC fake watches offer a choice of casing: either 18kt 5N gold or steel. But the choice also is one of branding. Choosing either the 41mm or 43mm steel variants means choosing a smoky transparent caseback with the faux-F1 team’s logo emblazoned on the sapphire crystal. The logo also appears on the strap, making it outwardly visible — which is fitting since myriad drivers from Fernando Alonso to Sebastian Vettel (and even Lewis Hamilton, who is a producer of the film) have referred to Formula 1 drivers as “billboards on wheels.” Thus, sporting AAA replica watches with a corporate logo (even a fictional one) gets you at least partway into the cockpit.

But if you prefer a more timeless appearance, the all-gold IW388309 has no visible “APXGP” branding and, in fact, has nothing that outwardly links it to the film. If past releases are any indication, special packaging will cover that base, but on the wrist, it appears for what it is: the first precious metal UK perfect copy IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph. To that end, it features a black ceramic tachymeter bezel while retaining the 41mm diameter of the reduced-size Pilot’s Watch Chronograph. Perhaps coincidentally, the first Performance Chronograph was also launched in conjunction with a Formula 1 team, albeit a real one. Released in 2023, the awkwardly-named buy replica IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team paved the way for the watch we see today.

Functionally, the new “APXGP” luxury fake watches are the same as others in the Pilot’s Chronograph collection. Utilizing IWC caliber 69385 movements, they offer traditional chronograph functionality with totalizers in a 6-9-12 arrangement. There’s space at the 3 o’clock position for a day-date complication, which is color-matched on the gold version but not on the others, in keeping with IWC’s decision to reserve this feature for its non-steel pieces. The dials of the steel versions feature the luminous painted numerals found on similar base models but with gold accents, including the logo, minute track, and subdial printing. Meanwhile, the Performance Chronograph retains the same gold-plated handset and some of the printing but upgrades the hour markers to gold-framed applied numerals filled with Super-LumiNova for high visibility in low light. All three high quality replica watches are controlled by screw-down crowns and prominent pushers that are matched to the rest of the case.

A popular addition to cheap super clone watches across IWC’s catalog is the EasX-CHANGE strap system, the brand’s proprietary toolless spring bar mechanism, which is found again on these new releases. The flat-profile means comfort on the wrist and broad compatibility with straps that can be purchased directly from IWC. While all three of the new Pilot’s Watch Chronographs come on black rubber straps with the signature Pilot’s Watch taper shape, something tells us these wouldn’t look half-bad on a steel bracelet.
