About the Watch
The 1930s saw the creation of the iconographic style of the Portugieser family, which is characterized by its startling size, uncomplicated Arabic numerals, narrow feuille hands, and railroad minuterie. It was much ahead of its time back then. The original dial is still a style icon today due to its simplicity and reductionism which is shier impossible to copy.
About the Brand
The heritage of IWC is deeply rooted in American pioneering spirit and entrepreneurship. Florentine Ariosto Jones, a watchmaker from Boston, founds the International Watch Company in 1868. He draws on the help of eminently qualified Swiss watchmakers, modern technology, and hydropower sourced from the nearby River Rhine to manufacture pocket watch movements of the highest possible quality. The Rauschenbachs, an industrialist family from Schaffhausen, take over the company following Jones’ return to the United States. During its early years, IWC produces pocket watches with a digital “Pallweber” display, as well as wristwatches for women and men.
