"Le 14 bis", the third model, is a limited edition steel version with a dark grey dial and a yellow-gold bezel. Only 500 pieces are available worldwide. This watch is named after the "Santos-Dumont 14 bis", a winged aircraft inspired by birds' flight.

The "La Demoiselle" is the final model of the limited edition and could be regarded as Santos Dumont's crowning achievement. It was inspired by the monoplane that he used to cap his career as a pilot, just before the First World War. Santos-Dumont wore a Panama hat that was an icon of his style. The watch is based on this hat. The dial is light brown with "pommes" and a Panama hat-like texture. It's paired with a custom-made Panama weave strap.
The little signature "IWC Replica Watches", which is usually found at the 7 o'clock mark, has been replaced with "Santos". This is to highlight the significance of Santos Dumont to IWC Replica Watches. The watch, which is limited to only 30 pieces, comes with all the accessories and a box, including a set of white-gold cufflinks, with red tiger's eye inlay.Panerai Luminor Base Replica Also included are a brown alligator travel pouch and an additional brown leather strap.
