IWC have been making specialised and high quality watches in Switzerland since 1868. Many of the IWC vintage watches are now prized collectors items. They are a company who continue to produce high quality and unique watches for a more demanding current market. The Aquatimer first appeared in 1965 and now the legendary name has come to life again with this 3536 model, this time, better, stronger, more durable than ever before. The Aquatimer can stand up to the demands of any professional diver, down to a depth of 2000 metres, which corresponds to 200 bar. Each individual watch is tested to this pressure before it leaves the factory, however this is untested. This is a very handsome watch, and whilst there are a lot of divers watches out there, all looking the same, this one stands out form the crowd. Firstly being in all titanium, has a dull grey but handsome appearance. It has a mat black dial, luminous baton markers and a date window at 3 position.The case is made to the usual exacting IWC standards, and the bracelet is one of the best wristwatch bracelets ever made, with its unique detent sprung push button sizing system, making it easy for any user to size their own bracelets, yet maintaining the bracelet integrity and security, in addition the bracelet is well designed and handsome looking at the same time. It has a uni directional ratchet operated rotating bezel which is mat black giving very unique appearance – normally they are highly polished. It also has centre sweep second hand with a hacking seconds feature, lightly convex sapphire crystal, IWC bracelet system and push button safety clasp.
