Experience the revival of a true horological icon with the IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40, a contemporary reinterpretation of Gerald Genta’s legendary Ingenieur SL Ref. 1832. First introduced in the 1970s, Genta’s bold design language defined the luxury sports watch category—now reimagined with modern materials, cutting-edge engineering, and refined ergonomics.
Crafted entirely from Grade 5 titanium, the 40mm case and integrated bracelet deliver exceptional strength while remaining remarkably lightweight. A sophisticated mix of satin-brushed and polished surfaces enhances the architectural lines of the watch, while the grey textured grid dial gives it a bold, technical aesthetic that pairs effortlessly with the titanium bracelet.
At the heart of this timepiece lies the IWC-manufactured Calibre 32111, an automatic movement offering an impressive 120-hour (5-day) power reserve. True to the Ingenieur’s tool-watch heritage, the movement is protected by a soft-iron inner case, providing outstanding resistance to magnetic fields—making this watch as practical as it is striking.
With a well-balanced 40mm diameter, approximately 10.7–10.9mm thickness, and 49.6mm lug-to-lug, the Ingenieur Automatic 40 is perfectly suited for daily wear, business settings, and refined sport use. A 10 ATM (100m) water resistance rating and reinforced crown protection further underline its versatility.
This example is pre-owned in excellent condition, complete with its original box and papers, making it a highly desirable offering for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
