IWC has produced a very wide variety of wristwatches from an early time ranging from dress watches to aviation watches. This example, in 18k rose gold with it's white/silver dial would remain a constant in anyone's collections. Especially as it comes with these beautiful huge slight down turned lugs which let it appear a lot bigger than 36mm.

With it´s overall appearance with matching rose gold hands and hour markers it brings back relevance to today's modern aesthetics.
