Submersible Timepiece Includes Chronograph.
Waterfront: Diver's Delight

Incorporating a dual-function element in the design of the Aquatimer Chrono-Automatic allowed International Watch Company (IWC) to create a diver’s watch that also operates as a chronograph. The water-resistant self-sealing crown positioned at "4 o’clock" serves as a reset button for the chronograph and operates a unidirectional rotating inner bezel via a wheel mechanism. Pressing the crown disengages the wheel and facilitates the operation of all watch functions. The Aquatimer Chrono-Automatic has a 42-mm diameter titanium-and-steel case and is water resistant to 2,000 meters.
