IWC Aquatimer 2000m
I bought this watch many years ago at a launch event, still think it’s absolutely beautiful and rather unique. It’s one watch I’ve never come across in the wild since. I just can’t understand why it was never particularly popular! Anyway, thought I’d share …

Absolute storming classic from IWC's heyday, I wish they'd go back to Aquatimers like this....

And another photo …
I thought I’d add another photo … watches are never easy to capture on “film”!

I love the Aquatimers, but I really wished IWC would pay attention to these and the Ingenieur lines. They do need a refresh or new models in those lines.

I sold my iw3536-02 to a friend about 5 years ago and recently convinced him to let me buy it back. It's at LAWW getting serviced right now, can't wait to get it back - such a great, low key tool watch.

I predict that next April will be HUGE for IWC:
- New Ingenieur with genta (in-house). - New Aquatimer line (in-house). - New Mark XIX (in-house). |

While I’m also keen to see a new line of aquatimer, I still prefer the watches from, or conceived before, the Richemont era. I feel there was more design congruence and a refreshing Swiss-German simplicity. I also love the amusing ad campaigns from that era.
