THE ORIGIN OF TIME
IWC Schaffhausen x THE ALPINISTS
The raw force of nature, transformed into small marvels of engineering and craftsmanship that stand the test of time: ever since the American watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones founded IWC Schaffhausen on the banks of the Rhine more than 150 years ago, the current from the river has been powering our manufacturing. We use the perpetual energy of the water to make mechanical watches that are built for eternity: timeless in their design, engineered to be long-lasting, and made with the utmost respect for people and planet.
This holiday season, we celebrate our source of energy and inspiration. Joining forces with “The Alpinists”, a collective of young climbers and some of the most renowned mountain photographers in Switzerland, we travel upriver to the source of the Rhine. On our way, we visit some of the most beautiful and scenic places in the Swiss Alps before reaching our destination: The Origin of Time.
Our luxury gift guide contains a curated selection of the timeless watches we craft in Schaffhausen with the never-ceasing force of the river. Be inspired to find the perfect gift for a loved one - or a watch to add to your collection.
