Both the dial and the hour and minute hands of your watch have
luminescent elements that allow you to read the time effortlessly,
even in total darkness. The distinctive triangle at 12 o'clock serves
as a reference point.

The water-resistance of IWC watches is stated in bar and not
in metres. Metres, which are often used elsewhere in the watch
industry to indicate water-resistance, cannot be equated with dive
depth because of the test procedures that are frequently used.
Water-resistance shown in metres provides no indication as to
actual use of the watch in the presence of moisture and wetness,
and in or under water. Recommendations for use in connection
with the water-resistance of your watch can be found on the
Internet at www.iwc.com/water-resistance. Your authorized IWC
Official Agent will also be pleased to provide you with information.
