To mark the 100th birthday of Jacques-Yves Cousteau celebrated on the June 11 2010, IWC Schaffhausen, having long supported the Cousteau Society,ugg boots size8, has created a fifth special edition dedicated to the legendary ocean explorer-the Aquatimer Chronograph Edition Jacques-Yves Cousteau watch. IWC watches from the International Watch Co were the realization of the combination of an American dream and Swiss technology. The watch brand came into existence when an American gentleman named Florentine Ariosto Jones pondered over producing watch movements in Switzerland and selling them in his native country, the US. This decision was based on the fact that Switzerland, impregnated with innumerable skilled watch making craftsmen, was a dearth of low wages at that time.

The case construction of the IWC Jacques-Yves Cousteau watch features a chunky external rotating bezel. You can turn the bezel only anticlockwise to provide the necessary safety, even with gloves on. The 4-mm-wide sapphire glass ring has been provided with six layers of luminescent Super-LumiNova coating for utmost legibility and luminosity under any light conditions, so the watch is a reliable diver's watch even when night-diving.
The case-back of the watch holds one more surprise-it is engraved with a portrait of Jacques-Yves Cousteau, surrounded by the words "A Tribute to J.Y. Cousteau 1910�2010".
The new IWC watch is equipped with an IWC automatic chronograph movement. The 25-jewel movement, beating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, offers a 42-hour power-reserve.
