Welcome to the small circle of individuals who, if we
are to be absolutely 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
devoting 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 crafts-
manship: a fascination with new inventions 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 accuracy than it is here.
