Extended information

IWC’s watch engineers have great enthusiasm for innovative inventions, technological innovations and major developments in the watch industry, which has become the driving force for IWC’s advancement. In 1885, the only watchmaking factory in eastern Switzerland developed the first pocket watch with a digital display, which caused a sensation around the world. In 1889, watch manufacturers across the country launched fierce competition to create the first wrist watch. During this period, IWC stood out and became the world's leader in manufacturing watch series.

“Based in Schaffhausen, looking at the world” is the creed that IWC adheres to. Although IWC is located in a small town far away from the center of watchmaking, it still firmly occupies a leading position. Specializing in manufacturing special timepieces to meet special needs has always been a challenge that the Schaffhausen team in Switzerland is most willing to accept. For example, the antimagnetic pilot's watch Mark 11 made for the Royal Air Force has become a legend in the industry.
