Lot Essay
This IWC Da Vinci is an elegant and complicated timepiece. It features a perpetual calendar chronograph with split seconds chronograph. The Da Vinci is different from many perpetual calendar wristwatches because all of the functions are set from the crown and there are no push buttons in the case. Often, watches like this one do not feature luminous material on the dial, but this model has luminous hands and dot hour markers that add a bit of sportiness to this watch.
