IWC

In a world dominated by luxury sport watches, not just the usual two, but Moser, Chopard, Bulgari and Overseas to name but a few, there is an obvious omission- a true child of Genta. We all know well, the first two offspring from the Genta. But the third ...  

Maybe the wrong name. Maybe the watch attracts almost nobody. It is absolutely nothing for me. Albeit i do not want a PP Nautilus either. Overseas, Royal Oak. That are tru power bulls, i want that on my wrist!

And is priced at 8-10€, this will fly But thanks for your thoughts!

Agree. My thoughts also, IWC have good models. Da’vinci, Portefino, Big Pilot, etc that are better known by the public. It’s the same as Rolex his famous models and the unknown Cellini. Stay posting. I am changing i feel. See a lot of independents and i a... 

I have nearly pulled the trigger on many occasions, but since I have never seen one in the flesh to try it on the thickness has always put me off...

Needs to be less than 10mm for sure

Thanks for the write-up. After reading it, the niobium alloy version fron 1989 has become my grail watch. I agree that it was the wrong place and wrong time, and that now may be a very good time to release a proper heir to the line. I wish they made somet... 

I hope IWC finds one along the lines of the 3228. The Ingenieur has appeared and disappeared enough over time that may just be it's DNA. What next will be revealed... I sold my 3227 & 3239 last year . It's tough for me to see either of those becoming high... 

Not reviving the original engineer in some form is an enormous failure of IWC leadership. There are two excuses, which only make sense as such in the Swiss watch industry which is still stuck in the previous century : releas schedule is determined years a... 

but am not optimistic that a return to the brand’s roots will be made without a regime change. I used to own an “early” Mark XV, before or at the time of the brand’s sale. I miss it. But it’s been quite some time since I’ve wanted a new one. To be sure, I... 

I will admit I biased. I love the “SL” or what I call the 1832 IWC Jumbo. I own three early originals and wear each. But do find it a challenge to wear later models. When they made it smaller and thinner, I lost the Genta vibe. The 1832 on the wrist Makes...  

Until then.....this is the closest to the 1832. ...  

A timely article from Fratello: www.fratellowatches.com

It is a 99% sign that IWC is working on it )

lets just say, its a very very very very good bet !!!!!

And it is awfully so quiet around IWC now....will we ever see the new Ingenieur. Also no leaks whatsoever from Big boys like PP, VC, rolex, omega, JLC, Cartier, etc...

The train is already run. Almost all brands have been jumping in the wagon, what are IWC waiting for.

Saying "do not make new Ingenieur if you want to keep your job. The iconic Genta-styled integrated bracelet will eat the Vacheron's Overseas. We already have steel sport integrated bracelet watches in the much-cheaper brands in our portfolio .Lets keep it... 

Really hope IWC will come up with Ingenieur this year

Three new colours : Inspired by brown desert Inspired by grey-black rocky (iwc specifically says something about titanium alloy) Inspired by bluish white ice/snow. It will be fantastic if they release new Ingenieurs with different material and colors. My ... 

Here goes! The ingenieur will come back… in color. Using ceratanium cases with straps and a bracelet version, again in matching ceratanium color. Why not a classic stainless steel and bracelet design? Well, that space is reserved for the new Vacheron 222 ... 

I hope not colorful pilot watches again. I was hoping for an Ingenieur or at least an Aquatimer with a color twist.
