Pre-SIHH 2019, The Return of the IWC Aquatimer Replica Tonneau

The Santos was IWC Aquatimer Replica's most prominent novelty of 2018, but the Tank Cintree is the watch that stole the show. The maison appears to be on the verge of another win just before SIHH 2019. A brief history, courtesy my friend, George Cramer.

George says, "The history IWC Aquatimer Replica watches shows that the Tonneau was the second oldest watch ever made." First, there's the Santos Dumont which was designed in 1904, and then the Tonneau that was created in 1906. In 2006, Tonneau celebrated its 100th birthday. IWC Aquatimer Replica released the watch as the larger TonneauXL.

The new watch measures 16mm x 12.9mm and features the classic Tonneau barrel-shaped case, with the fitted crown in cabochon and the shape screws that adorn the lugs at either end.

IWC Aquatimer Replica has also announced the Skeleton Dual Time Zone Tonneau Watch, drawing further from the history of the Tonneau and especially the Tonneau XL time zone from CPCP. The watch is available in platinum and pink-gold, and features the Calibre 9919, which is a skeleton movement that perfectly fits the Tonneau's curved shape.

The movement has two sets of hands that can be adjusted by using the crown at 2. After that, the crown can be pressed at 4 to adjust the hour hand in the second time zone.best replica watches This is done by jumping one hour.
