IWC Schaffhausen is a luxury watch brand specialising in the manufacture of high-quality, precision mechanical watches. IWC Schaffhausen watches combine Swiss watchmaking tradition with technological innovation, offering models for different tastes and occasions. Some of its most famous collections are the Portugieser, Pilot, Portofino, Aquatimer and Ingenieur.

IWC Schaffhausen History

The history of the IWC Schaffhausen watch brand began in 1868, when the American engineer Florentino Aristo Jones settled in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. His business partner, Johann Heinrich Moser, had devised a system for harnessing the Rhine’s hydroelectric power and starting mechanised watch production. The Schaffhausen factory produced 10,000 watches for the American market and then expanded into Germany.

IWC Schaffhausen focused on wristwatches and pilot’s watches. In the 1930s, they developed the “special aviator’s watch” with a black dial, Arabic numerals, protection against magnetic fields and luminous hands. This watch established a dynasty that included the Mark X and Mark XI, the latter of which became the official watch of the British Royal Air Force.

Today, IWC Schaffhausen’s vintage pilot’s watches are popular with collectors. In 2002, they launched the “Big Pilot” and in 2012, a limited edition in honour of Antoine de Saint Exupéry.

Back in 2007, IWC Schaffhausen introduced the “TOP GUN” family, inspired by the US Navy’s Combat Arms School. With a rich history and commitment to precision, IWC Schaffhausen is an iconic brand in watchmaking.
