Da Vinci Perpetual 3921 Red Gold / Silver

In Context

At 43 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 15.5 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. 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.

IW3921-01 is one of 3 executions of the IW3921 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a silver matte dial and a red gold case.

Self-winding movement with flyback chronograph, perpetual calendar and moon phase indicator.
