Welcome to the small circle of individuals who, if we are to be
absolutely precise, demand slightly more of a watch than absolute precision. Appre-
ciation 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 imagination. 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 fas-
cination 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.
