History Of IWC Schaffhausen Watches

The history of IWC Schaffhausen watches dates back to 1868 when an innovative American watchmaker named Florentine Ariosto Jones established the International Watch Company. The original goal was to combine Swiss craftsmanship with the latest American technology to create the highest-quality watches in the world. Since then, IWC has become renowned for its precision engineering, craftsmanship, and design excellence.

IWC has a long-standing tradition of producing exceptional timepieces that combine technical innovation with classic styling. The company’s commitment to quality and design has resulted in the invention of a range of iconic and timeless watch collections, each with its own distinctive design and features.

IWC is particularly well-known for its Pilot and Aquatimer collections, which are designed for those who appreciate the combination of practicality and style. The Pilot collection, for example, is inspired by the watches worn by aviators during the first half of the 20th century. It features robust yet sophisticated designs, and is built to withstand even the most demanding environments.

The Aquatimer collection, on the other hand, is designed for those who love spending time in the water. Each Aquatimer watch is built with superior water-resistance.
