This model Aquatimer watch centers its design around a face that is unassuming at first glance.  You can see that this watch immediately sets itself apart from the competition by having a face that is encased in platinum rather than the more standard steel.  The impressive gloss of platinum makes a subtle but key difference in creating a watch that is silky smooth to wear and a pleasure to see.  With a diameter of 44 mm, seeing the time on the IWC Vintage Aquatimer Mens Wristwatch Model IW323105 is as easy as it is pleasant.  Chic gloss and unobtrusive bars instead of numerals create a highly professional design that allows this time piece a professional appearance prime to fit in perfectly in any board room.  Additionally, being water resistant up to 400 feet allows this time piece to be rugged enough to follow you in all of your daily activities, whether professional or strictly for pleasure.

There is certainly not a single watch that can be designed to suit all individuals in all situations.  It must be said that this watch is not a good fit for an individual looking for flash in their time keeping accessory.  There are no diamonds encrusting this watch face, nor are there nifty colors obscuring your view of the time it keeps.  Customers who are in search of a watch that stands out from their overall look, rather then enhancing it and complimenting it in a subtle way, will not find their fit with this particular model.

The IWC Vintage Aquatimer Mens Wristwatch Model IW323105 carries with it an intimidating price tag of roughly $38,000, making it a bit out of reach for many individuals.  Those who can afford to purchase this model and brand of watch will surely find themselves utterly pleased with their purchase, however.  Platinum is a metal that keeps and keeps, much like a fine wine.  The leather band allows for daily wearing with comfort, and the incredible durability of this time piece make this watch an incredible value for the dollar.
