IWC announced the addition of three new members to its diver’s watch family. We presented you last December the Aquatimer Chronograph Edition “La Cumbre Volcano” dedicated to the eponymous volcano in the Galapagos Islands. Today we introduce you to the second model, the Aquatimer Automatic 2000.
IWC’s Aquatimer Automatic 2000 sees the launch of a model that now comes with yellow hands and numerals and a black dial. The origins of this timepiece go all the way back to 1982 and a watch designed by Ferdinand A. Porsche for mine clearance divers. Water-resistant to a 2,000 metres, the Aquatimer Automatic 2000 is a piece of equipment intended for ambitious amateur and professional divers alike.
Its power comes from an IWC-manufactured 80110-calibre movement with automatic winding and a 44-hour power reserve. The watch has a mechanical external/internal rotating bezel, the SafeDive system and luminescent elements. The movement is housed in a 46-millimetre titanium case. The engraving of a deep-sea diver on the case back and the black rubber strap complete the overall sporty look.
