This IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Chronograph Ref. IW3750 was launched in 1985 under the helm of Günter Blümlein, IWC's CEO at the time. Head watchmaker Kurt Klaus developed a new type of mechanically programmed perpetual calendar module was conceived with just 82 components. For the first time in a perpetual calendar, all adjustments – from the four-digit year to the moon phase – could be handled via the three o'clock screw-down crown. IWC added in something called the "century slide" which advances once every hundred years. It remained in production until 2003 with its hinge lugs, mushroom pushers, screw down crown remains an iconic design of IWC from the 1980's.
