Unchanged, is the majestic elegance of the design, and the sublime control of its mechanical movement.Obvious by the caseback of sapphire exposure is gauge 98950, a movement of IWC of hand-wound which underwent the subtle evolution since its appearance in the 1920 ’s. consisted of 205 various components, including the bridges and the dishes young person-engraved out of money of nickel, gauge 98950 incorporates devices of signature of the historical IWC that Jones pocket-observe gauges; the chief among these elements are a prolonged index of adjustment, and a balance of screw of large diameter with a hairspringn of overcoil of Breguet and special cams of adjustment.The mechanism of active strongly complex meticulous repetition on request when the lever on the case is actuated; it sounds the hours on a low note, the hours quads on alternating the high-low notes, and the various minutes with various high notes.Way of all the good meticulous movements of repeater, it comprises a mechanism all or nothing which excludes to run up unless the slide is operated correctly.Gauge 98950 of IWC has a traditional frequency of balance of 18.000 vibrations per hour.The reservation of power is 46 hours.

IWC Vintage Ingenieur Automatic Watch

International Whaling Commission in 1955 auto engineers: Watch determine whether the “technology” like the image of the International Whaling Commission, an engineer, which is launched in 1955 This is the first time observed that the function of automatic movement developed by the International Whaling Commission Albert Pellaton. Its pawl-winding system and the spring-type rotor, it is still a benchmark for the highest level of science and technology watches – while retaining the ultimate degree of toughness.

This program, this project reflects the tabulation Schaffhausen manufacturers, the International Whaling Commission has begun to enter the modern era. An icon of quality consciousness, have been handed down since 1868, it has been in the product line under a number of camouflage. In 1989, a legendary model, engineers 500000 the A / m, has created a world record of Antimagnetic components resistance mechanical watches oppose the most extreme magnetic fields.

Half a century after the debut, the International Whaling Commission’s tab icon, fundamentally revised. This is more than 50 years ago to ensure the resilience and reliability engineers – the first time in 8531 and later as a 8541-caliber – today finds its logical evolution of the International Whaling Commission, 80110 and 80111 manufactured goods caliber. The engineers automatically with the unit, which also promoted the “new” engineer, put forward in 2005. Old watches used the case of 42.5 millimeters, and one of the most stylish wheel engineers – and the point of stroke index (forms of light-emitting materials) and the ninth-style hands.

The model is rare in today’s collection the highest order. Watch monuments pay tribute to the modern distribution of the original soft-iron box, providing a deeper understanding of the International Whaling Commission, created by movement. With the anti-reflective, crossed out sapphire glass dial-up and thread the crown, the new and old engineer waterproof to a depth of 12.

Press Release – International Whaling Commission engineers Automatic Edition “Climate Action”

Carbon neutral observation, made the cause of the benefit of everyone – this is the International Whaling Commission engineers Automatic Edition “Climate Action.” It is a symbol of the world, can be saved. To provide a lot of people pull their own weight. The campaign’s awareness of environmental protection is also conducive to the management. International Whaling Commission, and play its role.

We can save the world’s attention? Perhaps. To combat global warming started with – in the minds of as many people as possible. And engineers Automatic Edition “Climate Action” is a positive indication that, more and more people began to do what we love our planet. International Whaling Commission, for example, is a carbon-neutral certified enterprise. Schaffhausen plant is to support the Climate Group is an independent non-profit organization founded in 2004, with the engineers Automatic Edition “Climate Action.” Part of sales proceeds will be translated into projects active in international organizations, it is with governments and business leaders around the world, with a view to the speedy establishment of low-carbon economy.

Many companies, national, regional and cities around the world show that the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is necessary, this can be achieved while simultaneously increasing profitability and competitiveness. Climate Group, a pioneer in the use of these efforts as a catalyst to enable it to quickly find a pragmatic solution that the international efforts to curb global warming. “The next five years will prove to be decisive, said the global climate,” Steve Howard, president of Climate Group. “Our emissions globally to reach the peak in the foreseeable future, and then decline. We must restrict heating of the atmosphere to 2 degrees Celsius. We further over the prescribed limit, then a more radical change will be.”

Climate Group, founded in London in 2004. Steve Howard and his staff for support have been successful in a series of multinational corporations for their cause. These people who most certainly do not stand around the Wailing Wall of environmental policy. They actually do, put forward a market-oriented solutions, so that we stay away from issues related to carbon dioxide. Automatic version of the engineer “Climate Action” will be limited to fill in 1000 watches and accurate bills, because that all the other watches the International Whaling Commission, of course. The carbon footprint of the factory, has been impressive. All of the carbon dioxide emissions generated by previous business is gradually reducing the use of alternative technologies. For unavoidable carbon dioxide emissions, such as commercial air travel, which is equivalent to balance the amount of investment in wind power projects, promote the use of renewable energy.

However, engineers automatically Edition “Climate Action” no more than to support the project. This is also a symbol. Engineers design and pure, it’s “renewable” mechanical transmission and mixed conventional and advanced materials – that is, stainless steel and ceramics – it is an ideal ambassador to the notion that the world’s climate is a problem, we are concerned. As always, actions speak louder than words. And as a long-term life, a powerful high-quality products – like all the other watches the International Whaling Commission – which is also in line with the requirements of sustainability. Limited special edition is different from the standard model through its silver dial and prudent use of the yellow index of five minutes and back engraving. Color theme is repeated backstitching belt and Prints “the International Whaling Commission’s support for voluntary action on climate change,” reiterated the commitment Schaffhausen watch manufacturers environment.
