IWC IW357001 Ingenieur Automatic SS Silver Dial

The IWC Ingenieur Automatic ref. IW357001, introduced in 2017, embodies the brand’s revival of the iconic 1950s Ingenieur aesthetic with a modern, refined execution. Crafted in polished stainless steel, its 40 mm case houses the dependable in‑house Calibre 35111—based on the Sellita SW300‑1—with a 42‑hour power reserve and a frequency of 28,800 vph, offering both precision and reliability. The silver‑plated dial, adorned with rhodium‑plated luminous hands and index markers, presents a clean, timeless visage that pays homage to its heritage while ensuring excellent legibility. Water resistant to 100 meters, this model offers everyday practicality without compromising elegance. The black alligator leather strap adds a touch of dressy sophistication, complementing the watch’s understated yet purposeful design. With its solid caseback and screw‑down crown, the watch maintains a robust build quality that collectors appreciate for durability and wearability. Its restrained complication set—hours, minutes, seconds, and date at 3 o’clock—reinforces its role as a versatile daily wearer with a nod to classic watchmaking. As an entry‑level model in the modern Ingenieur line, the IW357001 stands out for its balanced proportions, technical integrity, and connection to IWC’s engineering legacy, making it a compelling choice for discerning enthusiasts seeking substance and style. Excellent Condition with IWC box and papers dated 2019.
