The Durable Dive Watch with State of the art Features

 Print It

The renowned IWC Aquatimer watches are intended to be fashionable and long-lasting while also being easy to wear. Their materials are titanium and stainless steel, very tough and light. Watches do eventually cause muscle fatigue, although not enough for most people to notice. You will find that an Aquatimer watch is much lighter than your current watch and the difference is highly noticeable.

Components and Other Features

The titanium and/or stainless steel cases have a brushed finish to reduce glare and the appearance of small scratches, and are carefully designed and intended to have these effects. The pieces fit very closely in these cases as a lot of effort goes into the assembling of components and cases, meaning they are milled, drilled, and turned instead of being stamped. For example, the crown is a very tight fit so that it will never wobble in any given situation or setting.

Extreme Readability

Another interesting feature of this watch is the way in which the steel indices and hands combine with the convex crystal sapphire to make the watch extremely easy to read. No holes, blotches, or bleeding through the watch will occur with this luminescent material. Aquatimer watches may use certain materials like super Luminova, tritium, or sometimes both. Tritium always glows but contains radioactive traits and hence should be used very sparingly. Super Luminova will glow for only about five hours maximum, but emits no radioactivity. It is a good idea to use both materials for different needs. The dial is large enough to be accurately read what the exact time is, however, it is not oversized.

Bezel, Movement, and Bands

The IWC 2000m watches have the interesting feature in which the bezel won’t turn unless pushed down on both sides. This is to reduce the probability of accidentally turning the bezel and spoiling it somehow. The bezel can also be removed to be cleaned, and to eliminate the problems caused by material building up under the bezel during normal operation. You can clean it yourself by removing the screws that hold it in place, without having to have the watch sent to be fixed by a professional.

The movement mechanisms in the Aquatimer dive watches vary from ones made specifically for a line of watches to kits bought and augmented with their own parts. Take for example, the 2000m Aquatimer Automatic, which uses a 2892 KIT and replaces certain components to make sure it can withstand the conditions the rest of the watch was designed for.

Two types of bands that are available through IWC which are very common dive bands: the Velcro version which is tear resistant and the metal link bracelet. Although the bracelet is susceptible to scratching easily, it is well made and comes with everything you need to make it larger or smaller by adding or removing links. Some of the versions, like the Aquatimer 2000, are designed to narrow toward the clasp to minimize interference with wrist movement. Also available for purchase from IWC is the special diving strap that won’t irritate skin like numerous other straps are wont to do. The rubber bracelet that IWC makes, however, also counts for a perfect band for diving.

Conclusion

Comfort and strength is what the IWC Aquatimer watches are designed for. Some people think the watch could use a modification or two, but most believe that IWC dive watches have already obtained this goal. It is not hard to see why IWC has remained a pioneer in watch manufacturing because of their ground-breaking designs and technologies.
