Previously we have looked at the early titanium Ingenieurs and also IWC use of black titanium
The week we look at, "an odd and truly rare bird":

Cheers from the cellar
Another interesting Tuesday Tour!...
The olive green coating, especially as the color appears in the catalog, is a different variation of which I was unaware. Thanks, Greg!
Best regards,
Jim
Is it blue or green? LOL
Not my cup of tea....but very interesting.
Thank you Cellar very interesting (nt)
Thanks cellar
Plenty of new information for me too!
Kind regards,
Clemens
Quite audacious
I must say that this is a side of IWC we do not see very often nowadays. I would love to see this kind of metal in the catalogue, for an Ingenieur Chrono or so. But I might not buy it, and a lot of people neither, which is sadly the reason it is not there. But you need some kind of adventurous attitude sometimes, to do something meaningful and very special indeed, or you might become dull and predictable. Certainly if that kind of titanium is very strong, that might be appealing to the techy guys. Maybe that special titanium bezel on the new ceramic Da Vinci Chrono comes close.
Kind regards,
Paul, wearing predictable rose gold VC Portuguese
Thanks cellar......
...I'd like to see an Ingenieur in that metal and color made again.
...Looks Great to me.
Best,
