Destriero Scafusia Red Gold / Bracelet / English

In Context

At 42.2 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 18 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.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 44 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

IW1868-07 is one of 10 executions of the IW1868 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a silver dial and a red gold case.
