Design Highlights
In 1884, IWC used the revolutionary form of the digital hours and minutes display in pocket watches for the first time. This innovative time display is being honored in the anniversary year with the IWC Tribute to Pallweber Edition "150 Years". Following the design of the historic Pallweber watches and as a tribute to the American IWC founder F.A. Jones, the windows of the digital display are labeled in English with "Hours" and "Minutes".
Design Highlights
Launched to honor the 150 year anniversary of IWC Schaffhausen, the lacquered dial is a common characteristic in this collection. Coated in a complex process with more than ten layers of high-quality lacquers, flat-polished, brushed and subsequently printed several times, the enamelled dials of the historical Pallweber watches served as inspiration.

The hands, as well as the moon and stars are gold plated.
