The IWC Schaffhausen Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar (Ref.

This 39mm automatic chronograph is highly regarded for its technical ingenuity and distinctive baroque-inspired design.

• Καντράν: The black dial configuration features a highly legible layout with four sunken subdials.

  • Λειτουργίες: Hours, minutes, small seconds, chronograph, and a perpetual calendar (day, date, month, four-digit year, and moon phase).

  • Moon Phase: Positioned at 12 o'clock, integrated into the 30-minute chronograph counter.

• Μηχανισμός: Powered by the IWC Caliber 79261 (based on the Valjoux 7750), featuring Kurt Klaus’s module that allows all calendar indications to be synchronized and adjusted solely via the crown.
