II · The line

Big Pilot's

IWC’s Pilot’s Watch tradition began with its Special Watch for Pilots in 1936. High-contrast instrument-style displays and a focus on readability carried forward into later branches of the family.

III

The perpetual calendar

A perpetual calendar knows how long each month is and when February has 29 days, so the date needs no correction for decades. The first manual adjustment falls in 2100, a year that is not a leap year in the Gregorian calendar. If the watch stops, it is set forward with the correctors rather than by turning the date day by day.

IV · The manufacture

IWC since 1868

American watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones founded IWC in Schaffhausen in 1868. The Special Pilot’s Watch of 1936 established a lasting aviation line. In 1955, the Ingenieur combined Pellaton automatic winding with protection against magnetic fields. The Aquatimer of 1967 moved the instrument-watch idea underwater. Kurt Klaus’s crown-adjusted perpetual calendar appeared in the Da Vinci in 1985. IWC joined Richemont in 2000 and remains one of the group’s watchmaking houses. A new Schaffhausen site opened in 2018 for cases, components and movement assembly. The Portugieser Eternal Calendar won the GPHG Aiguille d’Or in 2024.

V · Ownership

Wearing and caring

1
An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.
2
Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
