Going Back in Aquatime

In 2008 IWC released its vintage line. In this line was the release of the iconic IWC Vintage Aquatimer Automatic Model IW3231. This IWC model brings us back to a time when functionality mattered more than the style. Little did they know, as so many have rediscovered the retro look in today’s modern society, that its style has now equaled its functionality.
When the first Aquatimer was produced, legibility was the main design feature. This was a time when diving as a sport was just emerging from its infancy. Point in fact, water sports were still extremely dangerous. With the updated 44mm case on the IWC Vintage Aquatimer, this legibility is even more pronounced. This watch begs to be glanced at on the wrist. Still in line with the durability of IWC Aquatimer’s predecessor, it is a work horse, an every day bang around watch that lives up to the IWC engineering standard.

The great design features of the IWC Aquatimer IW3231 are the modern details applied to the 60’s design. The watch is equipped with the pressure-resistance and sealing systems of the modern Aquatimer. Staying true to the 1967 model, the 2nd crown controls the dive ring bezel for easier use, rather than the grip and turn bezel common with most watch companies. The exhibition back is nice bit of contemporary design that only the wearer will know is there.

The Vintage Aquatimer Automatic Model IW3231 is a modern adaption of one of the first great sport watches. It holds true to its classic rugged roots in watchmaking lore, while adapting IWC modern engineering to its legendary functionality. Swisswatchexpo.com presents a watch rarely on the market because it is simply that well made and that good looking. IWC’s Vintage Aquatimer delivers a modern touch with a look and feel that transports you back in time.
