In Context

At 39 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. At 8.6 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, 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. 42 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.

IW3563-08 is one of 10 executions of the IW3563 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a black dial and a stainless steel case. Introduced in 2007.
