When IWC revealed the new Gerald Genta IWC Ingenieur version I was very disappointed. But now having this watch for a review I’ve changed my mind... Well almost... In this video I will share my first thoughts and impressions of the new Ingenieur.
I am very exited to have my hands on the new IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40. This is the Gerald Genta Ingenieur reissue with the aqua dial colour, reference number IW328903. I will tell you if the watch worth the retail price or not in my opinion.
Topics covered:
1. The Gerald Genta IWC Ingeniuer brief history.
2. Why the watch is so hyped.
3. How you can buy this IWC Ingenieur.
4. Why I love this watch.
5. The design and specifications.
6. How is the green/aqua dial colour.
7. The problem with the bracelet.
8. The size and how is the watch on the wrist.
9. Price and the competition.

These watches are not for poor people, i.e. watch enthusiasts. Those who can afford luxuries don't look at money or resale value. It's a beautiful watch and a welcome breath of fresh air in a market already tired and bored by Rolex, Omega, Tudor, etc.

How is a reissue of another watch from the 70s cashing in on the recent trend around vintage-inspired integrated-bracelet watches a breath of fresh air? It seems like the opposite-IWC being late to the trend and occupying an empty middle ground between the exclusive pieces from Patek and AP and the affordable Christopher Ward and Tissot options. Being neither exclusive nor affordable, who’s this for?

I agree with the massess that it's gorgeous but over-priced. IWC overall has drastically increased their prices over the past couple years. Pilots chronograph 41 was 6500 USD in Jan 2022 and now is 7600 USD. The ingenieur should be between 6k to 7k USD. Having this cost more than a Datejust, hell more than a GMT Master 2, is absurd.

Great review. I struggle to understand why IWC didn't make a more premium movement with a display back if they were going to price this model where it is. It should be positioned where it is, but the movement just doesn't command this level of price, so it seems like a cash grab to price it at over $15,000 Canadian.

@waterfordrs22 5 месяцев назад

I’m not a big fan of integrated bracelets. They can look good, however I do t like being locked into a proprietary system and lack of casually found strap. I’ve got a couple watches with 19mm lug width, something that’s often made out to be a big deal, it’s not an issue these days, I’d find this kind of setup far more restrictive. I’m more of a dress watch these days, this strikes me as one of the nicer integrated sports watches today. No way would I consider it at retail. I do love the case, I’d wear it in the bracelet and be done. I’d consider a preowned Defy Skyline at the right price. I’m more of a Zenith fan but prefer this aesthetically. The Tonda comes to mind, but too rich for my blood…. It’ll be interesting to see what the prices look on the preowned market down the road once the dust settles.

They misread the market. 3 y ago, maybe, but not when Rolex AD’s are calling and wait time much shorter (got a Rootbeer in less than 12 months). At 12-14, there are way too many options, especially if including secondary markets. I feel my Octo Finissimo will much less likely to be dated (probably because it probably will never be mainstream, lol) in 5 years. I am negotiating a great deal on a Moser for less than 12, also not a derivative design. There are Mk XX’s on bracelets to be had for less than 5500, and much more interesting Zenith models for less than 9. And BnM are great deals, too. I’m very curious because they couldn’t have guessed that badly, could they?

I don't get the idea that the price of the watch is justified because other Genta-inspired watches cost even more. Of course AP and Pateks cost more. They're highly exclusive, hand-made, hand-finished to an incredible standard, and use in-house, highly decorated movements. The IWC is none of that and to claim that the design's inspiration in work they paid Genta for over 50 years ago should add any value or cost is straight-up ridiculous. Imagine VW charging $75,000 for a new Golf because the same designer that did the original in 1973 also designed higher-priced exotics for Maserati, Lotus, and Alfa Romeo.
