The IWC Aquatimer Chronograph Edition “Sharks” is a limited series of 500 pieces that takes inspiration from the work of Michael Muller (a professional photographer). The amount of innovations, the choice of models and materials that were introduced with this series can’t be beaten in the whole history of the collection itself and neither can the number of limited series dedicated to projects that have been promoted by the brand – like, for instance, the exclusive collaboration with the Charles Darwin Foundation aimed at protecting sharks, who are part of the marine fauna of the Galapagos Islands. The current IWC Aquatimer collection has been one of the most successful since its very release at the end of the 60s, it is also one of the most complete collections ever crafted. It features 21-jewels, a date display, a central hacking feature, 28,800 vph (4Hz) frequency, and a 42-hour power reserve. The concept of “ limited edition” that is nowadays so widespread, was first applied to the world of watch-making and it is one of the reasons why some timepieces appear to be more attractive than others. The IWC Aquatimer Automatic is powered by the caliber 30120, a self-winding movement.
