Catalogue Essay
- In 1955, IWC’s technical genius Albert Pellaton created a watch engineered for endurance—the Ingenieur. This groundbreaking timepiece could resist magnetic fields up to 80,000 A/m, an unprecedented feat at the time. With its sleek metal case, utilitarian dial, and iconic lightning bolt logo, the Ingenieur encapsulated functional design.
- The Vintage Collection was launched in 2008 to celebrate IWC's 140th anniversary. It featured modern reinterpretations of six iconic IWC watch models from the company's history. The Vintage Ingenieur Automatic drew design inspiration from the 1955 "666" model which had antimagnetic capabilities.
- Released in a limited edition of 500 pieces, the present Vintage Ingenieur numbered 028 stays faithful to its technical heritage. Cased in platinum with a self-winding cal. 80111 beating at its core, the watch melds vintage appeal and modern pragmatism. For the discerning collector, this well-preserved timepiece represents a rare chance to experience the engineering excellence of IWC’s past while looking forward to the visionary innovations yet to come.
