IWC JOURNAL: IWC & Solaris Take to the Sea

Some things are just meant to be – like the partnership between Solaris Yachts of Italy and IWC Schaffhausen, two companies with a wealth of shared values. Here’s your chance to see the results of this perfect paring – The Solaris IWC Schaffhausen Edition 55.

“The Solaris IWC Schaffhausen Edition 55 perfectly translates the spirit of the Portugieser collection into a contemporary sailing yacht.” So says IWC Creative Director Christian Knoop, in discussion with Fabrizio de Falco, Product Manager and Communications Officer at Solaris Yachts. The Portugieser collection was always about sailing and navigation, and as any sailing enthusiast knows, the Edition 55 is a benchmark in the 16 meter category, both in terms of aesthetics and functionality. The two companies came together to create this very special edition, blending the best of both worlds into a yacht that is named “DOUBLE MOON” in reference to the iconic moon-phase indication of IWC’s legendary perpetual calendar complication.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy a few gorgeous moments of the Edition 55 gliding over the water on a perfect day.
