Horological Meandering

.....IWC created in 1988 the antimagnetic watch Ingenieur line 3501 with the movement 37590. This is a bit of a special in kind, as they avoided steel and other magnetic metals to the largest extent. The rotor ball bearing in the automatic movement were s...  

Even if not everything worked out financially. Gives us great pieces to collect, though Thanks for sharing it with us!

500'000 A/m and particularly with the two Ocean Bund AMAG which are not antimagnetic but a-magnetic. Cheers, HSTE

We see two similar watches but the bezel's dots are two times different. Any idea why is that?

....as the bezel was just screwed into the case with a tool that fitted the 5 holes and hence the final position of the holes was different in every watch. It might be something that the eye has to get used to, but for "connaisseurs", these are the only t... 

....where the holes are nicely aligned, but the bezel is just a fix part of the case. A very rare watch by the way, probably the only pocket watch produced from the beginnings of pocket watches to the 2000 which is shock proof and water resistant (!!) HST...  

Never heard of them before! thanks for sharing! If possible, I would change the bezel position, to get it more simetric! Cheers, André

.....as the holes are just slightly off. Read my answer to one of the replies above. I just love it!! This is watch-nerdism! HSTE Ingenieur 'Jumbo' 1832 (534 pieces ever produced) ...  

Didnt know that detail! Now that I know, I think is a nice add on! But still, I would need to get used to it as I like things symmetric

Your Ingy collection is really impressive! Love it! Best Blomman

.....technical innovation, design (Genta), unintended rarity and all of this at a reasonable cost. That is the stuff I like. Cheers, HSTE
