Introduction to Jim Chapman
Jim Chapman is one of Britain's best-known lifestyle and fashion content creators, having built his platform across YouTube, Instagram, and beyond since the early 2010s. Alongside his sister Tanya Burr and wife Chloe Chapman, he became one of the defining faces of the British YouTube generation, amassing millions of subscribers through content covering style, grooming, travel, and day-to-day life. Beyond content creation, Chapman has worked with major fashion and lifestyle brands, appeared in mainstream media, and helped bridge the gap between traditional men's style media and the digital generation that largely bypassed it.
When it comes to watches, the Jim Chapman watch collection leans toward pieces with genuine mechanical credentials rather than purely aesthetic appeal. Chapman has been spotted wearing the IWC Big Pilot's Watch Chronograph reference IW371701 — a 46mm stainless steel instrument-style chronograph powered by IWC's in-house calibre 89361. That movement brings a flyback chronograph function, column-wheel control, and a 68-hour power reserve, which puts it firmly in the technically serious bracket of IWC's pilot catalogue. The oversized onion crown, a functional carry-over from early aviation watches, makes the IW371701 one of the more physically commanding references in the Big Pilot line.
Choosing a watch like the IW371701 suggests an interest in horology that goes beyond wearing a recognisable logo. The Big Pilot Chronograph is not the most understated way to wear IWC — it is large, deliberate, and built around function — which fits with a content creator whose personal style has always had a considered, research-backed quality to it. With one confirmed sighting currently in our database, there may well be more to the Chapman collection than has surfaced publicly so far.
Jim Chapman Spotted Wearing IWC Big Pilot Chronograph IW371701
Inserted 30/11/2022
The IWC Big Pilot Chronograph IW371701 houses the in-house calibre 89361, a column-wheel flyback chronograph movement with a 68-hour power reserve — serious engineering dressed in a 46mm steel case that makes an unmistakable wrist statement. First introduced as part of IWC's landmark 2002 Big Pilot collection revival, the reference draws directly on the aesthetic DNA of the 1940s Beobachtungsuhr. British YouTuber and style commentator Jim Chapman, known for sharp, considered taste in menswear and accessories, wears it as a credible daily companion rather than a flex.
