About IWC
International Watch Company was founded in Schaffhausen by American watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones, blending Swiss craftsmanship with American industrial engineering principles. That hybrid DNA still defines IWC: technically serious watches in refined cases, without the flash of Geneva's jewelry-first houses. The Portugieser line (born from a 1939 request for marine chronometer accuracy in a wristwatch) is one of horology's great dress watches. The Pilot's Watch line traces back to the Mk 11 navigation watch built for the RAF. IWC's annual production of roughly 60,000 pieces and membership in the Richemont group give it strong distribution without diluting exclusivity.
