Watch Description

LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 500 PIECES!A collaboration between IWC Schaffhausen, the art publisher Taschen and American photographer Michael Muller, the Aquatimer Chronograph Edition “Sharks” is available in a limited edition of 500 watches. The grey of the dial is inspired by the color of a number of different species of shark. The case back depicts a group of swimming hammerhead sharks. IWC presents this special edition in dedication to the Galapagos-based Charles Darwin Foundation. IWC Schaffhausen has been a partner of the foundation since 2009, supporting the work of over 100 researchers, students and volunteers with a share of the proceeds from the sale of special edition Aquatimer watches.This watch features:

Brushed stainless steel case with polished beveled corners.

IWC SAFEDIVE SYSTEM Uni-directional rotating bezel:

Rotating the external bezel ring counter-clockwise will engage the inner bezel. However rotating the external bezel ring clockwise will not affect the inner bezel, thus preventing the risk of extending the period of time the diver remains under water. This is accomplished via the "sliding clutch system" which allows the external bezel to interact with the internal bezel ring - all the while maintaining the water resistance integrity of the watch. The sliding clutch system is fitted with a polished protective cover located on the case edge at the 9 o'clock position.

Bezel ring located under the crystal.

Bezel indications: from 0 to 15 is white luminescent indications that illuminates green, from 15 to 0 is white printed indications (no luminescent).

Slate grey dial with a fine sunray finish.

Applied index hour markers with luminous fill.

Polished hands, hour & minute hands with luminous fill.

Fine printed minute/seconds track.

Date windows located at the 3 o'clock position.

Small seconds sub-dial located at the 6 o'clock position with yellow hand.

Chronograph/Stopwatch functions:

Large black central seconds counter hand with yellow skeleton arrow-head tip.

30 minute counter sub-dial located at the 12 o'clock position.

Chronograph/Stopwatch function:

"Flyback" Function which allows instant restarting of the chronograph with a single push of the button instead of the need to stop, reset & then restart the stopwatch.

Large white central hand seconds counter

60 minute sub-dial counter located at the 12 o'clock position.
