IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 IW328901

2023 Geneva Watch Fair “Watches and Miracles”: The IWC Ingenieur series is a product line with a long history. The first generation of products has been sold with excellent anti-magnetic properties since its birth. The engineer SL redesigned by GÉRALD GENTA in the 1970s has been widely acclaimed for its integrated bracelet and bold aesthetic style. Following the 2013 engineer IW3239, the 2023 engineer IW3289, which continues the design style of GÉRALD GENTA, returns strongly.Replica IWC Ingenieur

The Ingenieur watch was originally born in 1955 (model 666). This watch is equipped with the brand’s first automatic movement and a soft iron inner case to resist magnetic field interference. It can be called a technical milestone in the history of IWC development. In its name, the word Ingenieur means “engineer” in both German and French.

One of the most noticeable improvements in the new watch is the addition of functional polygonal screws to the bezel. On the Ingenieur SL, the bezel with five screws is screwed directly onto the case lining. The position of the screw is not fixed, and the position of the bezel of each watch is different. In the Ingenieur Automatic 40, five functional screws are used to fix the bezel to the case, so the bezel can be fixed in the same position.

The dial adopts a unique “grid” structure, which forms a balance with the functional and sculptural case design. The ‘grid’, made up of small lines perpendicular to each other, is stamped into soft iron blanks, which are then galvanized. The hour markers and hands are covered with luminous material to ensure that the watch is still clear and easy to read at night. The overall size of the watch 40 case has been improved in all aspects. The 45.7 mm lug distance ensures perfect ergonomics and excellent wearability, and can ensure a comfortable experience even when worn on a slender wrist.

The watch is meticulous in detail and surface treatment. The surfaces of the case, bezel and bracelet are carefully polished and satin-finished. The upper end of the bracelet is equipped with closed links without pins, which shows excellent craftsmanship. The butterfly-style folding clasp is paired with an H-shaped link bracelet, which is more delicate and thin. The new crown protection device further highlights the watch’s sporty character.

Under the solid bottom is the IWC self-made 32111 movement, which is equipped with an automatic winding pawl winding system and has a power reserve of up to 120 hours. The new product continues the fine tradition of engineer watches in terms of anti-magnetic properties. The soft iron inner case effectively protects the movement from the influence of magnetic fields on its accuracy. At the same time, the case also has a water resistance of 10 bar (equivalent to 100 meters).https://www.osalewatch.io/
