Every year, IWC is lauded at SIHH – the Salon International de l’Haute Horlogerie in Geneva, for having the biggest and most spectacular booth.

This year is no different- and we think it turned out even more spectacular than ever before. As you have seen thus far, the highlight of the booth- designed to look and feel like a US Aircraft Carrier, is a spectacular, real-life flight simulator in the body of a real fighter jet.

Watch this video to hear, directly from the architects of this incredible operation, about the vision, and the hard work, adventure, the trials and the excitement that went into bringing it to life:

Behind the scenes: Designing the booth


You’ve heard what it took to bring this to life. Below, you have the chance to see how this complex and sophisticated unit was built, in a one-minute timelapse video. We hope it will bring you behind the scenes to SIHH, where IWC is currently Taking Off with the 2012 Top Gun mission.
