One of the earliest Swiss watchmaking brands to use colored ceramics, IWC used this material in the Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Chronograph (Model: IW3755) released as early as 1986, which was very innovative at the time.

The small second hand is at 6 o'clock instead of the 9 o'clock position of the 79 series movement, and the 30-minute counter is still at 12 o'clock.
