Welcome to the small circle of individuals
who, if we are to be absolutely precise, demand slightly more of
a watch than absolute precision. Appreciation of a watch is more
than mere appreciation of the correct time. It is enthusiasm for an
ingenious idea. For the interplay between precision and imagin
ation. Between time and timelessness. Between boundaries and
infinity. Between laws to which the entire world is subject, and
taste, which cannot be dictated to anyone. That is why, since
1868, we have been devoting rather more of our time to watches
that must not only run with absolute precision but which also,
with every passing second, exert a fascination with the great
achievements of master craftsmanship: a fascination with new
inventions of a technical, material or formal nature, even if they
are concealed in minute details that are perhaps not even visible.
You are now the owner of a beautiful new example of this IWC
tradition. We would like to congratulate you on your choice and
send you our best wishes for the time you will spend with your
watch, which perhaps cannot be described with any greater
accuracy than it is here.
