In 1868, Boston watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones founded the “International Watch Company” in Schaffhausen. He drew on the help of eminently qualified Swiss watchmakers, modern technology from America and hydropower sourced from the nearby River Rhine to manufacture watch movements of the highest possible quality. Committing to this heritage for the past 150 years, IWC’s mechanical timepieces are still handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail.
