Welcome to the small circle of individuals who, if we are to be ab-
solutely precise, demand slightly more of a watch than absolute precision.
Appreciation of a watch is more than mere appreciation of the correct time.
It is enthusiasm for an ingenious idea. For the interplay between precision
and imagination. Between time and timelessness. Between boundaries and
infinity. Between laws to which the entire world is subject, and taste, which
cannot be dictated to anyone. That is why, since 1868, we have been devot-
ing rather more of our time to watches that must not only run with absolute
precision but which also, with every passing second, exert a fascination with
the great achievements of master craftsmanship: a fascination with new in-
ventions of a technical, material or formal nature, even if they are concealed
in minute details that are perhaps not even visible. You are now the owner of
a beautiful new example of this IWC tradition. We would like to congratulate
you on your choice and send you our best wishes for the time you will spend
with your watch, which perhaps cannot be described with any greater accu-
racy than it is here.
