====== IWC 69355 ======
**Cal. 69355** is a midrange [[in-house]] [[automatic chronograph]] movement produced by [[IWC]] since [[2018]].

===== Details =====
The 69000 calibre family is similar in architecture to the [[IWC 79320]] and [[IWC 75320]] which were based on the popular [[Valjoux 7750]] series. IWC greatly modified the movement, however, including implementing a [[column wheel]] system rather than the cam-based 7750. The Cal. 69000 series can properly be called an [[manufacture|in-house]] movement, which enhances the reputation of the company's watches.

Although it features bi-directional [[pawl]] winding, it is a "push-pull" design like the [[Seiko]] [[magic lever]] system rather than IWC's [[Pellaton]] system. This makes the 69000 calibres more affordable than the [[IWC 89000]] family.

**Cal. 69355** is a two-register design with no date complication. It features [[small seconds]] at 6 00 rather than 9 00 as on the 7750, a special feature previously found on the [[IWC 79240|Cal. 79240]], which it replaces.
