I was recently asked by IWC to participate in the release of the new Ingenieur
by writing an article about the original 1832 SL from a collector's point of
view for the IWC Journal.
Aside from feeling honored to do so, it gave me an opportunity to spend time
with David Seyffer and Hannes Pantli discussing both the company and the watch
during a pivotal time in IWC's history.
Here's a link to the article in case you might want to read it:
Cheers!

Thank you Terry, I always learn something new from you vast knowledge of the
history and tradition of IWC as well as you extensive knowlege of IWCs
watches.
Great read, Terry, thank you!
Great article Terry
Thank you
It's a nice looking watch and all- but in the modern era, is this really the
watch an engineer would chose? Other than the historic tie with the Genta
design, it would've been nice to see IWC try and up the movement anti-magnetic
technology to match the competition. Seems like a wasted opportunity.

The IWC Journal is a platform for IWC Schaffhausen to share news and stories
about their brand, watches, and events.
However, IWC Schaffhausen has a history of collaborating with renowned watch
designers, and in the past, has worked with Gerald Genta on the design of
their Ingenieur line of watches. The Ingenieur line is known for its sporty
and functional design, making it a popular choice for those who enjoy outdoor
activities or require a watch with a high level of durability.
It is recommended to keep an eye on the IWC Journal for any updates or
announcements regarding new releases or collaborations.
Additionally, the official IWC Schaffhausen
website and social media channels may provide information on upcoming releases
and events.
Love reading about iconic design in context. Excellent article Terry - thanks
for sharing.
