marking the beginning of a collaboration between IWc and the charles darwin foundation, with its presence in the Galapagos Islands, the<br />
aquatimer chronograph Edition Galapagos Islands makes a statement not only about the company’s technical achievements, but also about<br />
its commitment to environmental initiatives. The 44mm matte black stainless steel case is entirely coated with vulcanized rubber, and sports<br />
a black dial with white indicators and a black rubber strap. This piece features an engraved giant tortoise on the back signifying this important<br />
partnership ($6,500).<br />
