IWC CEO Chris Grainger on the Future of Pilot's and Perpetual Calendars

IWC CEO Chris Grainger on the Future of Pilot's and Perpetual Calendars

One of the OT: fixtures of Watches & Wonders is Andy's annual chat with Chris Grainger, who some claim is the most charming watch brand CEO. The 2026 instalment didn't disappoint — we found 15 minutes to chat in the middle of the incredibly busy booth, and learn about how IWC isn't just looking to the past as it celebrates 90 years of Pilot's Watches, but also the future with innovations like Ceralume and the impressive Venturer Vertical Drive, the brand's first watch made for space. Before that, Felix and Andy gossip about the rumoured Swatch x AP collab, the latest Chris Ward and Hodinkee down under.

This week's episode is sponsored by IWC. Check out the latest releases, and follow the local IWC Australia Instagram account here.
