IWC Ingenieur Chronograph Silberpfeil watch, limited and numbered edition of 1000 pieces, round stainless steel case (45mm diameter, 15mm thickness) with screw-in crown, black rubber strap with brown calfskin inlay, brown engine-turned dial with silver/luminous hands and index hour markers, flyback chronograph stopwatch function (hour and minute counters combined in a totalizer at 12 o?clock, central chronograph seconds), small hacking seconds and date display with crown-activated rapid advance at 6 o'clock, 38 jewel Caliber 89361 self-winding mechanical movement with 68 hour power reserve, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, water resistant to 120 meters.With the new Ingenieur Chronograph Silberpfeil, IWC has breathed fresh life into the legend of the historic Mercedes-Benz racing car. One characteristic feature is the dial with its circular graining in silver or brown. This is a tribute to the mythical status of the Silver Arrow W 25, whose dashboard had a steel surround with circular-grain decoration. The efficient double-pawl winding in the IWC manufactured 89361 calibre is one of the most outstanding achievements of Haute Horlogerie currently on offer. The upper totalizer makes it possible to read off stopped hours and minutes as simply as the time on a subdial. Stopped times up to one minute are measured by the central seconds hand. Used in combination with the tachymeter scale, this provides the speed at which a reference distance of 1,000 metres has been completed. Another very practical feature for anyone who frequents the world?s racing circuits is the flyback function for measuring pit-stop times. The chronograph features a black rubber strap with a calfskin inlay. This, too, was inspired by the world of motorsport in the 1930s, when thick leather belts were omnipresent on motorcar bonnets. An attractive engraving of a stylized Silver Arrow racing car can be found on the case back. Between 1934 and 1939, Mercedes-Benz chalked up countless Grand Prix and other championship victories with its Silver Arrows.
