IWC recently dropped a new elevated version of the iconic Ingenieur Chronograph Sport watch. This is the luxury watch label's first time blending the bidirectional winding system drawn from its 69000 caliber models into a Ingenieur timepiece. The updated version of the Ingenieur Chronograph Sport watch has a titanium crafted case of 44 millimeters in diameter. The dials are plated with silver and the subdials are finished in black, with blue chronograph hands and black hands coated in luminescence.
The luxurious timepiece is inspired by the original Ingenieur watch from 1955, keeping its soft-iron inner casing. The highly limited watch will only have a total of 176 created and numbered, and each made with a strap from black calfskin. Lastly, to tie the entire timepiece altogether, the modem will have a '76' print, paying a homage to the 76th meeting of the Goodwood Members.
