IWC Da Vinci Chronograph

Shall I tell you what caught my eye about this watch? The rose gold tonneau-shaped case.  I am also much taken with the way the different dials work together.

IWC explains:

“As in the past, it measures the seconds in any one minute with the central seconds hand, but displays longer periods of time in rapidly legible form, with two analogue hands, on a single subdial. The hours and minutes of the period being timed can be read off immediately and unmistakably from a miniature watch in the dial. They no longer need to be read separately and then counted together.”

The Da Vinci Chronograph uses an in-house movement, 89360 caliber. It has a 68-hour power reserve with single barrel mainspring. In addition to rose gold, the watch is also available in platinum (limited edition, 500), white gold and stainless steel, all with crocodile leather strap. The rose gold is, to my eyes, the most striking of all.
