IWC Aquatimer Chronograph Edition “Galapagos Islands” Ref. IW379502 – 45mm Stainless Steel with Black Dial on Black Rubber Strap

Inspired by the untamed beauty of the Galapagos archipelago, the IWC Aquatimer Chronograph Edition “Galapagos Islands” 45mm is a powerful expression of IWC’s dedication to both technical mastery and environmental responsibility. This limited-edition timepiece celebrates the brand’s partnership with the Charles Darwin Foundation, supporting marine research and ecological preservation in the Galapagos.

The 45mm stainless steel case, fully coated in a vulcanized matte black rubber finish, delivers a bold, tactile presence and exceptional scratch resistance. The black dial with high-contrast white and yellow accents ensures maximum legibility in all lighting conditions. Its chronograph subdials and day-date display at 3 o’clock integrate seamlessly into the dial’s symmetrical layout, emphasizing both clarity and utility.

At its core beats the IWC Calibre 89365 automatic chronograph movement, featuring a flyback function and a 68-hour power reserve. The SafeDive system — an internal/external rotating bezel mechanism — allows divers to measure elapsed time with precision and safety. The textured black rubber strap offers comfort, durability, and resistance to seawater, making this watch a true companion for aquatic adventure.

With a water resistance of 300 meters, the Aquatimer “Galapagos Islands” edition combines IWC’s engineering excellence with a deeper purpose — a fusion of exploration, performance, and environmental consciousness.
