IWC Watches: IWC Schaffhausen watches

The Habrecht dynasty that created a number of famous watches was in the head of the guild.ones and Moser formed an alliance - they founded International Watch Company and started producing watches. (Of course Schaffhausen watch specialists could not refuse to help Moser). So they created top quality watches offered at reasonable prices. Their timepieces soon became highly demanded. IWC Schaffhausen watches are meant for a particular circle of people. They are first of all meant for those who sincerely love high mechanics but do not want to keep an expensive watch in a closet but instead wear it on the wrist. IWC watches are distinguished due to the combination of sports and classic features, every day wear and eternity.

IWC Leonardo da Vinci Watch

International Watch Company is a prestigious watch manufacture located in the small town of Schaffhausen. In 1583 there was registered a watch guild. The Habrecht dynasty that created a number of famous watches was in the head of the guild.

IWC was founded three centuries later, in 1868. Florentine Ariosto Jones, a 27-year-old American, came to Schaffhausen. He wanted to open a big watch company to be called International Watch Company. He wanted old Swiss craftsmen share the secrets of their mastery with him. He also was confident that his American colleagues would support him with most progressive technologies.

But Jones was mistaken: Swiss watch craftsmen did not want to share their secrets. He was ready to return to America when he met a person who was the "right guy" in the circle of Swiss watchmakers. His name was Johann Heinrich Moser and he was not only a watch maker but a pioneer and industrialist.

Jones and Moser formed an alliance - they founded International Watch Company and started producing watches. (Of course Schaffhausen watch specialists could not refuse to help Moser). So they created offered at reasonable prices. Their timepieces soon became highly demanded.

It is still possible to find golden pocket watches made in the end of XIX century by International Watch Company in some antique shops. But their price is enormous. The 1980-s marked the period when IWC mechanics flourished. In 1985 IWC presented a new revolutionary watch called Da Vinci - a chronograph with the function of perpetual calendar. Da Vinci proved the fact that complicated watches could be worn on a daily basis.

IWC Launches Da Vinci Rose Gold with Digital Calendar

Its flyback chronograph sets the standard. This watch harks back to the earliest digital-display timepieces from Schaffhausen of more than a hundred years ago.

The name remains a watchword: in its tonneau shaped case, the Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month continues the proud tradition of the calendar chronograph with which IWC Schaffhausen played a decisive role in heralding the renaissance of the mechanical watch in 1985. Not with big letters but with big numerals: for the first time ever, an IWC timepiece with a perpetual calendar that has a large format date display, and also turns the correct changing of the month into a large scale digital event on the dial. The watchmaker’s ingenuity was required yet again in order to showcase the two main calendar indications in such a prominent fashion. However, the Schaffhausen manufactory is known worldwide for solving difficult mechanical problems and it is not completely un familiar with digital displays, either.

To put this into historical perspective, we have to go back 125 years in the company’s history. That was the start of the licensing agreement between inventor Josef Pallweber from Salzburg and IWC in Schaffhausen, opening up an important chapter in the story of watchmaking. However, IWC pocket watches with a digital time display were only a short-lived phenomenon, and the new Da Vinci model follows only indirectly in the footsteps of the “Pallweber watches”, which are now highly prized collectors’ items.

For it does not digitally display the time but rather the date and month of its mechanically programmed calendar innovative, highly practical and, above all, clear and easy to read. Two years after the Da Vinci in its tonneau shaped case made its mark with the new IWC chronograph as a complication; this new model adds a major supplementary function to the existing Da Vinci range. For in addition to the chronograph and also the perpetual calendar, it now has a large format date and month shown in digital form, plus a digital display of the four yearly leap year cycle. The Da Vinci has arrived in the latest model in the Da Vinci collection is another milestone in haute horlogerie: its digital displays make not just every day, but every month too, into a significant event. Its flyback chronograph sets the standard. This watch harks back to the earliest digital display timepieces from Schaffhausen of more than a hundred years ago.
