Andrew O’Connor<\/a><\/p>\n

IWC releases the new Ingenieur Automatic 35 with a summer-ready Pool-coloured dial.
\nAs a new addition to the current range of 35mm Ingenieur models, this new model adds a refreshing splash of colour to the model line.
\nThe new IWC Ingenieur Automatic 35 is now available at IWC boutiques and is priced at \u00a38,900.<\/p>\n

When IWC brought back the G\u00e9rald Genta-designed Ingenieur in 2023, many watch enthusiasts were quite pleased to see its return. While there was a brief period of a more mid-century-style Ingenieur inspired by the reference 666, its lack of anti-magnetic features or distinct design made it blend into a crowd of round, dressy timepieces. With the new Ingenieur released in 2023<\/a>, IWC released the model with conventional black, silver, and blue dials, but one dial iteration stood out for many: the Aqua Blue.<\/p>\n

While the latest generation of the IWC Ingenieur has won many fans, 40mm can be quite large on an integrated-bracelet watch. Even though the original Jumbo SL was 40mm, IWC released a smaller SL in the 1980s measuring a compact 34mm. For fans of vintage-sized watches, IWC released a compact 35mm Ingenieur last year in 2025<\/a>. What was missing was a fun dial colour, until now. As a mid-year release, IWC unveils the new Ingenieur Automatic 35 with a Pool dial.<\/p>\n

\"IWC<\/p>\n

IWC describes the new Pool-coloured dial as a \u201cfresh, radiant aquatic shade,\u201d perfectly timed for summer holidays spent poolside. The dial has a light blue-green tone<\/a>, registering in my mind as a lighter version of the Aqua-dialled Ingenieur released in 2023. The grid pattern seen on other Ingenieur models remains, giving the dial an intricate, light-reflecting texture that elevates the Pool colour with added radiance. The dial features applied rhodium-plated numerals and hands that are filled with Super-LumiNova, and a framed date window at 3 o\u2019clock.<\/p>\n

\"IWC<\/p>\n

The case and bracelet remain the same as other Ingenieur 35 models. Made of stainless steel, the case and bracelet feature a vertically brushed finish, with polished bevels on the outer edges of the case, bezel, crown guards, and bracelet. The five bezel screws are functional<\/a>, as they attach the bezel to the case ring. The centre links of the bracelet are high-polished, adding a dressy element to an otherwise sporty design. The 35mm case measures 9.4mm thick and has 10 bar of water resistance thanks to the \u201cProbus Scafusia\u201d signed IWC screw-down crown. The dial is covered with a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coatings on both sides.<\/p>\n

\"IWC<\/p>\n

Flipping the watch over reveals the IWC calibre 47110. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the calibre 47110 was released as part of the Ingenieur Automatic 35 launch in 2025, providing a compact automatic calibre for use inside smaller watches, thus removing the brand\u2019s dependence on Sellita calibres. The calibre 47110 has 23 jewels, operates at 28,800 bph, and has a 42-hour power reserve. The movement and gold-plated rotor are decorated with broad circular Geneva striping.<\/p>\n

\"IWC<\/p>\n

Between the 40mm and 35mm IWC Ingenieur models, the 35 is arguably the most appealing, thanks to its subtle, sophisticated proportions. The 35mm platform is a refreshing change of direction for IWC. As a brand, we\u2019re used to seeing much larger watches from it, so it\u2019s great to see a focus on a more compact and versatile watch. Perhaps we will see a smaller Ceratanium<\/a> or ceramic Ingenieur<\/a> soon, especially if IWC continues with its coloured ceramics<\/a>.<\/p>\n
