IWC Schaffhausen - Big Pilot

Since 2002, the Big Pilot's Watch has been IWC's flagship. Its IWC-manufactured 51111 calibre -- one of the largest automatic movements in the world -- contains all the features that have proved their worth in the long history of IWC mechanical watches. Within no time at all, the automatic movement generates a power reserve of 8.5 days, but only runs for 7 days before being mechanically stopped by an ingenious little train in the power reserve.This eliminates the fall-off in torque that occurs as the mainspring winds down, which could lead to loss of amplitude in the balance and unacceptable inaccuracies in the rate.

Good job , i think it's the "first génération" of the big pilot that i buy in paris in JULY 2004 in antoine macedo store, the man who sells to carla sarkozy a gift to the french stupid president , a Pateck perpetual calendar but he's not a pateck dealer !!
