IWC Ingenieur

The IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 "Aqua", reference IW328903, is the modern reinterpretation of one of the most storied sport watch designs in Swiss watchmaking history, the Ingenieur, originally conceived by Gérald Genta in 1976 and reborn in 2023 with a design that honours its heritage while feeling entirely contemporary. This certified pre-owned example from 2024 is offered in excellent condition and comes with its full original set, including box, papers, and all original accessories. Crafted in stainless steel, the IW328903 presents the Ingenieur Automatic 40 in a beautifully resolved 40mm round case measuring 10.70mm in height, with the collection's signature five-bolt bezel that has defined the Ingenieur's visual identity for decades and that gives the watch its immediately recognisable, almost industrial character. Water resistant to 120 metres and designed to resist magnetic fields up to 40,000 A/m, staying true to the original's professional engineering brief. The "Aqua Blue" guilloché dial is the defining feature of this reference, its engine-turned surface providing an extraordinary depth and texture that shifts from a vivid turquoise to a cooler, more restrained blue depending on the light, with applied stick and dot hour markers and clean stick hands delivering outstanding legibility at every glance. A dial colour and finish that is as distinctive and immediately appealing as any in the current IWC catalogue. Powering the watch is the IWC Calibre 32111, a reliable in-house self-winding movement with central seconds and date display, beating with the precision and dependability expected from the IWC manufacture in Schaffhausen.
