Full-Cataloguing
At the stroke of midnight on January 1st, 2000, the world entered a new millennium, leaving behind the past and embarking a new adventure. IWC set out to celebrate this monumental change with a series of limited edition watches that remained true to their form and celebrated one of their most distinguished and complicated wristwatches, the Da Vinci.
The first model was released in 1970 and in 1985 their first perpetual calendar model with digital year display was released. By 1995, IWC added a chronograph to the perpetual calendar movement, and for the millennial change created a limited series including the yellow gold perpetual calendar tourbillon chronograph wristwatch, like the present example, in 200 pieces, an additional 50 examples in platinum.
The present example, number 57 of the 200, is in near new condition and appears to have been little worn from its date of purchase. The year indication is remains set to the year 2000, a reminder of the new millennium ahead.
