Sold

The IWC reference 3758 is an updated version of the legendary Da Vinci, reference 3570; its case is larger and the dial features oversized Arabic numerals. It was only in production for 3 years.
It is fitted with an automatic movement and has a four-digit year indication, auxiliary dials for date, day of the week and month in English, a 30 minute and 12 hour counter and a cutout for the moon phase. The sword-shaped hands are equipped with luminous material.

The IWC Da Vinci was the world's first automatic chronograph with perpetual calendar and a four-digit annual display. With its perpetual calendar through to the year 2499, the Da Vinci is a lasting value in times of change - it knows every leap year, every full moon, every date change of the next 500 years.
