Limited Edition of 1,000 Pieces – Adventure Ecology
To commemorate Adventure Ecology’s latest adventure, IWC is launching a
special limited edition of its Ingenieur Automatic Mission Earth. Even
the solid, durable construction of the new Ingenieur, manufactured
carbon neutrally in Schaffhausen, symbolises sustainability.
As a companion for David de Rothschild and his crew during the
four-month Plastiki expedition across the Pacific Ocean, the Ingenieur
Automatic Mission Earth Edition “Adventure Ecology” embodies the
message of the Plastiki: its blue dial and orange indices exclusively
represent the Plastiki expedition, which is also signified by the
intricate back engraving with the Adventure Ecology expedition logo.
The case, in stainless steel, measures 46mm x 15mm. It has a sapphire
crystal with AR-coating and is water resistant to 120 meters. A soft
iron inner-case protects the movement against extreme magnetic fields
up to 80,000 amperes.
Movement is the automatic IWC caliber 80110 with 28 jewels, beating at
28,800 bph and with a power reserve of 44 hours. This in-house caliber
features the Pellaton winding mechanism and an integrated shock
absorption system.
