IWC Ingenieur SL Steel, basket-weave textured dial

IWC, 1976–1983

Why It Matters

The Gerald Genta redesign that made IWC's antimagnetic Ingenieur an icon: a 1976 integrated-bracelet steel sports watch with a soft-iron inner case and basket-weave dial, nicknamed the 'Jumbo'. Reference 1832 is the original Genta SL, distinct from the 1955 first-generation Ingenieur.
