IWC Ingenieur Collection 2013

[thedoover]

I posted the following over in the IWC section yesterday, but since there hasnt been any comment, I thought I would put it out here.

IWC has announced sweeping changes and additions to the Ingenieur collection for 2013. The Ingenieur is without question my favorite IWC family, and the new watches are stunning. You can go read for yourself at IWC's website, but I thought I would highlight them here.

IWC is without question my favorite watch company. They have great aviation-inspired models. They have restrained but beautiful dress watches. The ingenieur series to me has both sport and dress elements to it, and I love the new additions for the most part.

I would add that the likelihood of any of these getting repped is pretty slim.

Ingenieur Constant-Force Tourbillion

I dont know why a constant force tourby is more accurate, but it looks pretty damn impressive. Also includes a double moon display and power reserve.

• Case made of platinum and ceramic
• 96-hour power reserve
• Perpetual moon phase display
• Double moon phases for the northern and southern hemispheres
• Countdown display showing phases until the next full moon
• Tourbillon with integrated constant-force mechanism

Price: $290,000

Ingy Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month


I havent seen this kind of display except a Glashutte model.


Highlights

• Case made of titanium aluminide
• 68-hour power reserve
• Perpetual calendar
• Large displays for the date and month
• Combined hour and minute counters
• Flyback function

Price: $49,700





Ingenieur Automatic Carbon Performance


This one is meh for me, but it is reppable.

Meh again, but could be repped.

This has been out for a little but, but now can be had with a white dial. I think the black is sexier.

Good looking chrono - seconds at 6 with min/hour totalizer at 12. Cant be repped well, but Id take a decent try. Quartz even at 6 with fixed totalizer.

• Combined hour and minute counters

Thanks!
I agree that some of those designs are pretty 'meh',too bad. Although, one or two of the color schemes are quite nice. Obviously,the 290k is very interesting looking.

Would defo take a 40mm ingy.

with its small size and simple dial its a sub for the more discreet.

Gotta love the Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month, doubt it'll be repped. Shall get one if I hit the lotto.

intention to have replica?

Hi!

Could you please tell me if you are going to have this collection (or some)?

Where can I find the store to buy? I could only find the blog!

May I ask you which ones you think may be used on work and going out at night?




Thanks for your time and attention
Yours faithfully

And this fórum called "replica-watch" is about originals?

Astutely pointed out.

In order to replicate something there must be an original. So knowledge of original watches is as natural as our knowledge of the replicas. This post serves to educate us in the newly released IWC watches.

Thanks for the info! I don't owe any original because they are far too expensive for my wallet!

49k for a watch - really?
