Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month Rose Gold

In Context

At 44 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 16.3 mm it is very tall, and sits high off the wrist. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 68 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

IW3761-02 is one of 4 executions of the IW3761 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a silver guilloche dial and a rose gold case. Introduced in 2009. Beyond the time it carries a perpetual calendar.

Mechanical chronograph movement, stopwatch function with hours, minutes and seconds, hour and minute counters combined in a totalizer at 12 o'clock, flyback function, small hacking seconds, perpetual calendar large double-digit displays for both the date and month, leap year display.

5 other watches in the library run the IWC 89800.
