| 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. |
Ingenieur WatchesThe Ingenieur is one of IWC's most varied collections, featuring a wide range of functions, straps and face styles. the Ingenieur Chronograph from
IWC, with its 79350-calibre chronograph movement and automatic winding
system,
small seconds, chronograph with central seconds hand and 30-minute
counter, is unique. The Big Ingenieur, whose 45.5-millimetre
case immediately impresses is certainly a unique timepiece. The Ingenieur Midsize radiates a discreet elegance of its own without making any secret of its suitability for everyday use, and finally the two AMG ranges crafted lovingly from exceptionally high quality materials. The Ingenieur is truly a timepiece for the discerning wearer.
