The perfect replica IWC Ingenieur existed for over 20 years before Gerald Genta, but it was the legendary Swiss watch designer’s touch that turned the copy watch into a true horological icon in 1976 with the debut of the Ingenieur SL Jumbo Ref. 1832.

The intervening years have seen various iterations of the luxury replica IWC Ingenieur, with the best releases being the ones that fully embrace the Genta aesthetic — the Ref. 3239 lineup from 2013 being a sterling example. Now, one decade later, AAA quality fake IWC is back in 2023 with a quartet of Genta-inspired Ingenieurs that take the best elements of the original SL Jumbo — the case shape, the cross-hatched dial pattern — and execute them with a modern flair.

The new aqua dial reference is especially stunning, and there’s a titanium IWC replica for sale for those with a proclivity for the muted tool watch look. The fact remains that only a handful of brands can lay claim to the Genta legacy, and with the Ingenieur Automatic 40, high quality fake IWC is rightfully proud to remind us that they are one of those few.
