IWC Schaffhausen

In 1868, Florentine Ariosto Jones, an American watchmaker, began the IWC or International Watch Company in hopes to incorporate both Swiss craftsmanship and technology. During this time, Ariosto Jone had a keen interest in innovation. He wanted to transform small Swiss shops into modern factories. Today, the International Watch Company (IWC) is acclaimed around the globe for its production of magnificent timepieces. IWC manufactured its first digital pocket watch in 1885. Showing an outstanding spirit of innovation, this pocket watch featuring digital indication was built to reach the precision of a chronometer.
