Da Vinci Watches
| The International Watch Company (IWC) is a Swiss company, founded by an American. Florentine Jones made the decision in the 1860s to establish a manufactory in Switzerland. In so doing, he was able to take advantage of the Swiss watchmaking expertise and lower wages of the workers. Jones was not well-funded, however, and he eventually had to give up control of the company. Over the years, the company changed ownership many times and experienced a veritable roller-coaster of success and failures. Today, however, the IWC is a strong participant on the world stage of luxury timepieces. | |
Da Vinci WatchesIWC heralded the arrival of a new age in mechanics with its unrivalled Da Vinci calendar/chronograph movement. But now comes a model that signals yet another new departure: the new Da Vinci collection with its fabulously designed tonneau-shaped case with a back cover made of sapphire glass. The Da Vinci collection is based on an extremely sophisticated movement design which substantially increases the benefits of wearing an IWC timepiece. The Da-Vinci collection contains the Da-Vinci Perpetual Calendar that contains the original automatic calendar/ chronograph movement used since 1985, the Da-Vinci automatic with 30130-calibre movement and the Da-Vinci Chronograph with its new IWC-manufactured 89360-calibre movement. |
